On June 14, millions of people in more than 1,500 cities, including Cincinnatians, across all 50 states and commonwealths will take to the streets. No Kings is expected to be the largest single-day mobilization since President Trump returned to office—a mass, nationwide protest rejecting authoritarianism, billionaire-first politics, and the militarization of our democracy.
In Cincinnati,Cincinnati 50501 and partners are hosting a peaceful rally and march on Saturday, June 14, from 11 a.m. – 1 p.m. Marchers will gather by University Pavillion at 2618 University Circle, Cincinnati, 45219 for a rally, followed by a march on Clifton Ave. The march will end at the intersection of Brookline Avenue and Jefferson Avenue, where Brookline dead-ends into Burnet Woods. Bring your signs and feel free to get creative around the theme of No Kings. This is primarily a protest and march, though there may be some speakers and tables from local organizations.
You do not have to be able to march to join this event; feel free to rally with us at the starting point or ending location if you’d like. You can also find updates and links to our social media here: https://linktr.ee/50501Cincy.
Organizers say Donald Trump thinks his rule is absolute, but in America, we don’t do “kings.” Since the inauguration, the Trump administration and its enablers have operated as though they have a mandate—but they don’t, and never did. They are going to extremes to empower Trump and enrich themselves, while cutting jobs and services for the rest of us. Now, they’re turning Flag Day into a celebration of Trump.
💰 He’s using OUR tax dollars to pay for HIS party: Donald Trump’s birthday celebration is expected to cost millions of our tax dollars, all while Republicans claim there’s no money for Social Security, SNAP, or Medicaid.
👑We are united against kings: Trump has already indicated that he’s aiming for at least a third term, and now he’s planning a self-aggrandizing military parade in D.C But the American people don’t put up with kings. Together, we will mobilize in huge numbers to reject this corruption and abuse of power—it’s in our DNA as a country.
✋They’ve gone too far: This is bigger than political disagreement. They’ve defied our courts, deported American citizens, disappeared people off the streets, and slashed our services—all while orchestrating a massive giveaway to their billionaire allies. Enough is enough. For anyone who thinks he’s gone too far, this movement is for you.
Whether you’re outraged by attacks on Civil Rights, skyrocketing costs, abductions and disappearances, the gutting of essential services, or the assault on free speech—this moment is for you. Whether you’ve been in the fight for years or you’re just fed up and ready to take action—this moment is for you. Our goal is to show that the people—the majority—are taking action to stop the corruption and power grab.
The “No Kings” mobilization is a direct response to Donald Trump’s self-aggrandizing $100 million military parade and birthday celebration, an event funded by taxpayers while millions are told there’s no money for Social Security, SNAP, Medicaid, or public schools.
All No Kings events adhere to a shared commitment to nonviolent protest and community safety. Organizers are trained in de-escalation and are working closely with local partners to ensure peaceful and powerful actions nationwide.
I am 71 y/o and currently disabled. I signed up for a No Kings Rally in Ohio, but realize it is more than I can handle. I love our country deeply. I will be praying for all participants to be safe and that we can convince Congress that the president’s behavior is inconsistent with our Constitution and he needs to be impeached and permanently removed from office.
Our amazing county is being taken over by liers and sneaky leadership from the White House.
