Santa Barbara: No Kings - Kick Out the Clowns!

On Saturday, June 14, President Trump is celebrating his birthday with an extravagant military parade in Washington DC expected to cost taxpayers upwards of 45 million dollars.  On that day, Americans across the country will be taking to the streets to declare NO KINGS.

June 14 is also Santa Barbara’s annual Juneteenth celebration of Black Independence Day. Our local "No Kings" protest is planned to accommodate both events. We’ve moved our protest to the beach where we will join “hands along Cabrillo” to create a human chain stretching as far as we can along the beach side of Cabrillo Blvd. We will begin gathering at 10:30 am and at 11:00 will line up, wave flags and protest signs, take photos, and then walk to Castillo Street, to join the Juneteenth event until 6pm at Plaza Del Mar Park.

In addition, we have the option to gather from noon - 2pm in De La Guerra Plaza.  This will be a smaller gathering to host some fun actions. Due to the other events planned, we will not be marching from this location, but will proceed to join the Juneteenth event.

 PLEASE RSVP if you will be joining us in DLG Plaza!  We will need this information to be adequately prepared, and to send updates!

This is our chance to reflect the absurdity of the MAGA regime and the clowns who lead it. 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.
