Boston’s big Pride Parade will happen with a ‘No Kings’ protest group joining in. This protest opposes President Trump’s policies. At the same time, a huge military parade takes place in Washington, D.

In the Greater Boston area, thousands of “No Kings” marches and rallies are taking place, part of major demonstrations planned across the country.

The “No Kings” theme was orchestrated by the 50501 Movement, a national movement made up of everyday Americans who stand for democracy and against what they call the authoritarian actions of the Trump administration. The name 50501 stands for 50 states, 50 protests, one movement.
