NO KINGS DAY - October 18

Niagara Square

11:00 AM - 1:00 PM

Program Details to Follow

No Kings 2.0 
 

Get ready for another major protest on the next No Kings Day, Saturday October 18! We encourage you to bring your signs and carpool from the church to protests being held in Niagara SquareWilliamsvilleTonawanda or elsewhere in Western New York. Register https://nokings.org for information on events near your home.

 

We are proud to stand alongside a diverse and powerful coalition of organizations committed to advancing equity, justice, health, labor rights, environmental sustainability, and community well-being across Western New York and beyond.

Together, these partners represent voices from every corner of our community — health advocates, labor unions, faith leaders, civic organizations, environmental coalitions, and grassroots movements. 

 

Each group brings unique expertise and dedication, but all share a common goal: building a stronger, more inclusive, and more resilient future for everyone. To dress for a "No Kings" event, you should wear yellow to represent solidarity with the pro-democracy movement. The phrase "no kings" refers to rejecting authoritarianism and upholding democratic values. The organizers chose yellow as a unifying, highly visible color for participants to wear.
