No Kings Event Map: https://www.nokings.org/#map

Find one near you, write down the address and time, and head out tomorrow. (You don't have to sign up for anything, all you need is the address).

Recommended that you bring a mask, hat, water and snacks. Safety Goggles or Glasses would also be a good idea if you have them.

Bring a sign or the US Flag if you have one.

For privacy reasons you may want to avoid bringing your phone, or place it inside a faraday bag (a really well sealed tinfoil pouch will work, and put it in airplane mode to avoid draining your battery) until you get home.

If you have a first aid kit, it wouldn't hurt to bring it, just in case.

I was always jealous of the kids whose families went with them to activism. Had a black math teacher in 10th grade take his young child son to KKK rally "so he can see the faces of the men who hate him," and that stuck with me. My parents supported me, and as children of veterans, share my views and love for what America is supposed to be about striving towards, but simple blue collar union Americans - not hippies or anything.

These days, so different. I dont even want to risk it on my own for fear of being taken from my kid.
