We the people are speaking out at every capital in every state, today, now!

A growing movement opposing President Donald Trump’s early actions is organizing protests across all 50 states on Wednesday.

What to Know:

The movement uses the hashtags #buildtheresistance and #50501 (50 protests, 50 states, one day).

Many demonstrations are planned at state capitols, while others will take place in major cities.

Flyers circulating online denounce Project 2025 and call for action against fascism and deportations.

Organizers, like Kelsey Brianne in Michigan, are mobilizing communities with grassroots efforts.

Protests have already begun, with thousands marching against deportation policies in Los Angeles on Sunday.

The movement has a website at 50501movement.carrd.co and is active on Instagram, Reddit, Bluesky, Discord and Signal.

    I was at the Boston event. At several points people started loud trans right chants which I think is a strategic mistake. This makes it too easy to reframe this as a trans protest rather than anti facism/anti 2025 since a huge portion of the population just dismiss trans rights protests out of hand.

      No. It is time to stop being complicit in trans erasure. No more of this “wait your turn” shit. I will not leave my queer brothers, sisters, and everything between/beyond behind for some vague notion of “optics.” We bring them with us. They deserve justice and support.

      Stop sacrificing marginalized groups for broader appeal it doesn’t even grant. Hell be brutally practical: We sacrificed Palestinians and LGBT folks for the election, what did we gain from it?
