Fort Myers Visibility Brigade Free America Walkout
Fort Myers Visibility Brigade joins Women's March for the Free America Walkout nationwide event on 1/20/26 from 1:30pm - 3:30pm on the Interstate 75 Estero Parkway Overpass Bridge.
1500 Estero Parkway, Fort Myers, FL. 33913
Park on the East side of the bridge, in the grass, on either side of the road.
(10-minute walk uphill to reach the top of the bridge.)
PG-13 signs welcome. Recommend 16-inch letters or bigger for visibility.
(So the cars below on the interstate can read the letters while driving.)
For example, you could use 22 x 28 poster boards and spray paint one 20-inch letter per poster board. Then, use binder clips to attach each letter to the fencing on the bridge/overpass.

*A core principle behind all Visibility Brigade 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.*
One year into Trump’s second regime, we face an escalating fascist threat: raids on our communities, troops occupying our cities, attacks on immigrants, families torn apart, mass surveillance, and terror used to keep us silent. It is time for our communities to escalate as well.

One year into Trump’s second regime, we face an escalating fascist threat: raids on our communities, troops occupying our cities, attacks on immigrants, families torn apart, mass surveillance, and terror used to keep us silent. It is time for our communities to escalate as well.
2025 was a year of marches that showed our collective strength. And as the threats grow, our movement must evolve and escalate. Trump and his allies have already made clear that a second term would bring a deeper wave of misogyny, racism, xenophobia, and violence than the first.
On January 20, we call on our communities to organize teams, call your neighbors and classmates, and turn your back and walk out on fascism. Host mutual aid planning meetings, organize public service, but walk out to block the normal routines of power, and make the stakes real. This is a protest and a promise. In the face of fascism, we will be ungovernable.
★ We walk away from fascism. ★
★ We walk towards a Free America. ★
★ We fight for a future that belongs to us all. ★
★ Everybody in, nobody out. ★
★ Welcome to the Free America Walkout ★
