While the world’s voices rise together, we will amplify.
Join us online for a one-day citywide media mobilization. While Donald Trump demands tanks and a $100 million parade for his 79th birthday, our residents face illegal firings, rising costs, shuttered businesses, and the dismantling of programs meant to serve the people. The spectacle is designed to distract, to mask hardship with pageantry, to control the narrative. But real power lies not in spectacle, but through our community and voices. This Saturday, we’ll show the city as it truly is: vibrant, defiant, alive. Through near-live footage from across DC, from metro stops to festivals to exhibits, we’ll tell the story they won’t. Not a staged performance of power, but the unfiltered reality of a people who will not be silenced.
Be sure to follow us on social media and catch the broadcast as it happens! Links in the footer below.
We fully support the core message of 50501 and the nationwide call for decentralized protests across hundreds of localities. We encourage everyone to participate in ways that reflect their own capacity and comfort level. For those who wish to rally against the president’s deeply troubling call for a military parade and the broader harms of his administration, we invite you to visit No Kings to find a demonstration near you. If you prefer a lower-risk or family-friendly environment, consider joining Free DC for a nearby event. Mayday Movement USA will be present for their daily activities.
