👑 No Kings SF -- Boudin Bakery Embarcadero

▪︎ Meet at 12:45 pm, at the entrance to Boudin Bakery, at Embarcadero Center
▪︎ PLEASE don't be a no-show. If your plans change, remember to update your RSVP prior to the event.

NO KINGS is a national day of action and mass mobilization in response to increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption from Trump and his allies. We’ve watched as they’ve cracked down on free speech, detained people for their political views, deported legal immigrants and American citizens, deployed the military into our communities, silenced voters, and defied the courts. They’ve done this all while continuing to serve and enrich their billionaire allies.

Our peaceful movement is getting bigger and stronger, uniting people to fight dictatorship together. We’re not watching history happen. We’re making it.

On Saturday, Oct 18, we’re taking to the streets nationwide. Please join us.

🔅 A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events.
