Event Description: NO KINGS: 1,000,000 Rising, Session 2-How to Make It Happen
A date for No Kings 2.0 has been set... Saturday, October 18th, 2025!
Across the country, authoritarian forces are getting bolder and more dangerous. Trump and his allies are not hiding their agenda: mass deportations, rollbacks of civil rights, weaponized courts, and full-scale attacks on our democracy.
We don’t have to wait until it’s too late. We can stop this. But it’ll take all of us—not just on single days of mass action, but through sustained organizing in our communities.
One Million Rising—is a national effort to train one million people in the strategic logic and practice of non-cooperation, as well as the basics of community organizing and campaign design.
This is how we build people power that can’t be ignored.
Session 2: How to Make it Happen
We are building a force bigger than fear and louder than hate. Let’s get ready. Let’s get organized. Let’s stop Trump.
A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.
We recommend all participants review our safety and security resource before the event: https://indivisi.org/safety
