"Previous rallies have drawn millions of people, and organizers said they expect even greater numbers on March 28 in the wake of Trump's immigration crackdown in Minneapolis, where violent clashes have led to the death of two people. "We expect this to be the largest protest in American history," Ezra Levin, co-executive director of the nonprofit Indivisible, told The Associated Press ahead of Wednesday's announcement. He predicted that as many as 9 million people will turn out."
"Levin said they want to show "support for Minnesota and immigrant communities all over" and oppose "the secret police force that is murdering Americans and infringing on their basic constitutional rights." "And what we know is, the only way to defend those rights is to exercise them, and you do that in nonviolent but forceful ways, and that's what I expect to see in 'No Kings' three," Levin said."
Organizers plan a third round of 'No Kings' protests nationwide on March 28 to oppose perceived authoritarianism under President Donald Trump. Previous rallies drew millions and organizers expect even greater turnout, with projections as high as nine million participants. The mobilization intensified after a federal immigration crackdown in Minneapolis that led to violent clashes and the deaths of two people. The protests aim to support Minnesota and immigrant communities and to oppose what organizers call a "secret police force" infringing constitutional rights. Organizers emphasize nonviolent but forceful demonstrations as the means to defend rights. Trump has defended his deportation campaign and rejected claims of kingship.
