Midland, MI Kick Out the Clowns: No Kings, Just Queens!

On June 14, Donald Trump will honor himself with a four-mile military parade in our nation’s capitol. Trump’s tacky parade was inspired by dictators he idolizes, and will cost taxpayers nearly $100 million. 

Organizer and strategist Daniel Hunter has written that “Humor is important for our psyches — and to take fascists down a notch[…] Humor is key for morale and exposing the vulnerability of the strongman image.” This is where the ridiculous meets the resistance—and where the future is on the line.

June 14 is our chance to reflect the absurdity of the MAGA regime and the clowns who lead it. To meet this moment, Women’s March will host community circuses nationwide—bold, creative actions that mirror the chaos MAGA has sown across the country. Together, we’ll set a national record for the most circuses held in a single day while we simultaneously refuse to celebrate a petty clown who desperately wants to be seen as strong. We won’t stop until we build the country we all deserve.

#BigTentResistance

Join Women of Michigan Action Network for our "Kick out the Clowns/No Kings, Just Queens!" march and rally!

Gather at Grove Park at 3 pm, where we will do some chants and get our spirits up before marching down Ashman St (on the sidewalk) to E. Baker St. We'll make a right turn there and then cross Rodd St at the crosswalk used by Central Park Elementary students. Continuing on the east side of Rodd, we'll walk down to the Central Park Bandshell where our speakers will begin at 4 pm.

Our speaker lineup is still being firmed up, but we'll have some  drag queens (in family friendly costumes)to set a fun tone. They will be marching with us and one will the the emcee for the event. They are not performing. We will also have a vocal group, which will perform music from the Broadway musical "Suffs", which is about the struggle for women's suffrage (voting rights).
