NO KINGS Joplin (with Indivisible Joplin)
June 14 @ 12:00 pm - 3:00 pm
In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings.
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, threatened to deport American citizens, and defied the courts. They’ve done this all while continuing to serve and enrich their billionaire allies.
Donald Trump is planning a military parade in Washington, D.C. on June 14. This display of might is intended to intimidate opponents and solidify his image as a strongman on our dime—we won’t stand by while that happens
We’re not watching history happen. We’re making it.
🚨On Saturday, June 14, we’re taking to the streets nationwide. We’re not gathering to feed his ego. We’re building a movement that leaves him behind. We’re showing up everywhere he isn’t—to say no thrones, no crowns, no kings🚨
This will be a sidewalk protest, so please plan to be outdoors and bring essentials like sunscreen and sunglasses.
The protest will take place at 7th and Rangeline in Joplin; park by Big Lots.

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
