Protesters gather in Washington DC for 'No Kings' demonstrations
Protesters gathered in various of parts of the Washington DC metro area on Saturday (October 18) morning ahead of a protest against US President Donald Trump expected to draw millions across the country.
In Washington DC, protesters prepared signs and costumes ahead of a march along the National Mall.
In nearby Arlington, Virginia, hundreds also gathered rallying with songs and signs before marching into Washington DC.
More than 2,600 “No Kings” protest events are scheduled to take place on Saturday in all 50 US states, a mass mobilization against Trump’s policies on immigration, education, and security that organizers say are pushing the country toward autocracy.
More than 300 grassroots groups helped organize Saturday’s marches, Greenberg said.
The American Civil Liberties Union said it has given legal training to tens of thousands of people who will act as marshals at the various marches, and those people were also trained in de-escalation.
No Kings ads and information have blanketed social media to drive turnout.
