WILPF members across the US participated in nationwide “No Kings” protests on June 14. These actions were a collective demonstration against Trump’s fascist agenda during his current term. According to Axios, more than 2,000 cities and towns across the US held “No Kings” events, and over 5 million people participated. From Philadelphia to Los Angeles, WILPFers were there in the streets, standing–and marching–for peace and justice!
