The No Kings protest group has published a map showing the U.S. cities and towns where protests will take place ahead of their next day of action.
The protest group is organizing a day of protests in multiple areas across the U.S. on March 28 against the Donald Trump administration.
"When our families are under attack and costs are pushing people to the brink, silence is not an option," the group said on its website. "We will defend ourselves and our communities against this administration’s unjust and cruel acts of violence. America does not belong to strongmen, greedy billionaires, or those who rule through fear. It belongs to us, the people."

Why It Matters
The No Kings movement has emerged as an influential protest group that has organized multiple days of action against President Donald Trump's administration since he returned to the White House in January 2025.
No Kings previously coordinated around 1,800 protests across the U.S. on June 14, the same day as Trump's birthday and the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army. While many of the protests remained peaceful, there were some instances of violence including a vehicular assault in Virginia.
Trump has previously called similar protests "a joke" run by "radical left lunatics."
What To Know
No Kings said that over 1,000 locally organized events had been confirmed, including a flagship gathering in the Twin Cities, the Minneapolis-Saint Paul area in Minnesota.
The group said in a release: "Last year, millions of Americans came together in nonviolent protest to oppose the Trump administration’s increasingly violent and deadly authoritarian actions. In June, over five million people attended No Kings events, and over seven million people attended local No Kings events last October. The March 28 mobilization is expected to be even larger than October’s, as more and more Americans rise up against President Trump’s increasing authoritarianism and federal abuses."
The group also said it had launched a training program for people to observe immigration officials. Organizers said that 260,000 had attended the trainings so far and that they would be holding more training events.
In October, at least 2,700 No Kings events took place simultaneously in cities, towns and suburbs in every U.S. state, decrying Trump’s policies and agenda.
Organizers had estimated that nearly 7 million people took to the streets nationwide, with events in cities including New York, Boston and Chicago topping 100,000 attendees.
What People Are Saying
Eunic Epstein-Ortiz, a No Kings spokesperson previously told Newsweek: "We're focused on our immediate and ongoing nationwide digital organizing effort to support local organizers on the ground in Minneapolis and across the nation, all leading up to the non-violent mass mobilization on March 28, where we anticipate millions in the streets at local No Kings marches, protests, rallies, and other types of events across all corners of this country."
