On April 19, 2025, approximately 1.67 million protesters took part in a coordinated national demonstration against the Trump administration, dubbed the 50501 movement. Coined from a viral Reddit meme, the movement aimed to represent 50 states, 50 protests in a single day. Notably, San Francisco saw significant turnout in key areas such as Civic Center and Union Square. Participants conveyed their collective message for impeachment and removal of the president, standing against perceived authoritarianism while advocating for democratic values and civil liberties. Organizers are also planning further actions for May Day.
The organizers of the 50501 movement shared, "We, the American people, have banded together in the interest of a common goal; to end executive overreach and reject the authoritarian actions of the Trump Administration."
In San Francisco, protestors rallied in the Civic Center, Union Square, Chinatown, and in front of the Tesla showroom on Van Ness Avenue, signaling a widespread discontent.
