I’m guessing Phoenix on Thursday night was 20k.
I'm going to the one in Tucson tomorrow morning
thank you!!!
It’s building. Everyone needs to encourage others to get their feet wet with local protests. We need a big turnout on April 5th. www.fiftyfifty.one
I volunteer with an 82 YO gentleman (I'm 71) who asked me to take him to his FIRST PROTEST!!!!! We went last Saturday and we plan to go to many more together!!!
There are lots of small things happening everywhere every week, too. Indivisible encourages local groups to organize things all the time. Check out their website.
I'm going to the one in Portland!
Thank you for posting the links. I feel like I am only hearing about protests after they happen. Using social media to get the word out ahead of time so folks can plan is key.
I created this List of Accounts who post about Protests, etc. You can follow it, I think. bsky.app/profile/did:...
Thank you!!!!
I found this with just searching for Protests....people are creating protest feeds already.
The feed scrolls by so fast. Maybe do a search for "protest" or create a "protest" Feed? It's probably better to search for the opportunities in advance so you can sign up and add them to your calendar...so you can plan & prepare for them...and have time to make a sign & ask someone to join you.
I second this. We need to get out of the social media algorithms. I found out about an event yesterday after it was over. Another option is to join a local Indivisible group.
No algorithms here. Your feed is what you want it to be. Create or follow lists of stuff that interests you. I just created this list of accounts that post about #protests I think you can follow it? Pin it to your feed. Let me know if you want other accounts added to it. bsky.app/profile/did:...
I understand that. It was Facebook that showed me the event too late. The group organizing it is not on Bluesky.

I’m currently in Michigan, so I will be attending the one in Lansing! ✊😎
lucky!
I’ll be there, too! 💙
Why are you all waiting that long? Given the pace of the damage being done? Stop kicking the can down the road!!!!
There have been a series of these. And a bunch of other protests too. They are getting people used to it. They are building. We aren’t waiting. There are protests everywhere right now.

I heard 34,000, which is nearly 1 percent of the Denver metro area, I think, and it's early days. It's encouraging in a sea of discouraging news.
yes! it was! and that will just drive trump nuts. i bet he decides to go have a rally.
He won’t because no one will show up and if they do it will be to protest him.
