#bloomscrolling

A large rose almost the size of your fist, open in full bloom. A slightly darker and more wilted rose is crowded slightly below it.

Two large teacup-sized roses in full bloom, clouded close together on the bush.

A light pink rose with ruffly petals and a seedy center.

Abolish ICE NOW

Three inflatable costumes cast shadows as the sun is low in the west at a No Kings protest.

Protest #2 was even bigger and better. Milwaukie, Oregon. So proud of my community for turning out and the love from so many vehicles.
I’d guess close to 600 folks, including these three. The Spring sunshine felt like a celebration. Bald Eagle flyover.
#NoKings

My favorite part of No Kings is meeting new people who are kind and concerned. Community os so important.

We gave out free water, granola bars, tangerines and juice packs -- people kept offering to pay us. We politely declined. We asked everyone: Pls make sure you are registered to vote. 💙 #NoKings

Holy sh*t!

San Diego is showing up for No Kings!

Massive protest!

I’m quietly rooting for you. I hope you get some resources to get back on your feet. 💜

NYC Protest

Bruce Springsteen. #NoKings

if nothing else, there is something to be said for spending time outside in the sun with thousands of people who share your anger at the state of things

Holy New York.

Social movement scholar here to comment on No King again. a 🧵:

These protests are important b/c:

1.) as sustained image events, protests offer evidence of continued disapproval of the direction the country is going and disavowal of the country's leadership.

Ilhan Omar: In the United States of America, we pledge allegiance to the Constitution and the flag, not to a person or a King!

“Be gay, due process”

“I fart on fascists”

More great signs from San Diego #NoKings

I even got a souvenir!!! #NoKingsChico

Showered, dressed, sunscreened, and made new signage. Have a good day, y’all. #NoKingsCA

hi Jeri, could you help me make this fascist supporting post office famous?
they used a government vehicle to block a road to a plaza where we were protesting today
our tax dollars at work!

highly recommend an excellent brass band for all No Kings protests!

Stop pretending your racism is patriotism

Stand up speak out stay united, no blood for oil. Baix amb Trump

Girls just want to have fundamental rights

Capitulating to an authoritarian regime is never the right move

Starting in 15 minutes, but already getting a good crowd. And some great signs. My favorite is “Stop pretending your racism is patriotism.” I also like “Capitulating to an authoritarian regime is never the right move.”
