AUGUSTA, Ga. () – Protestors will be waving their flags and signs in opposition to the Trump administration.

This is just one of more than 1,000 protests that are expected to happen on Flag Day across the country; there is also a protest planned in Aiken.

People joined together before the protest to make their flags and signs.

Krista Gentry, Communication Lead for Indivisible CSRA, said, “A lot of the people in the community are really upset about what is going on, on a national level in our country and they’re scared, and they want to come out and show that they’re not okay with what’s going on and want to see changes.” 

The name ‘No King’s‘ came from the 50501-organization dismissing the idea of a “king” ruling the United States, advocating for democracy.

Organizers say the protests are purposefully happening on the Army’s 250th birthday, Flag Day and President Donald Trump’s 79th birthday.

“We just want to draw attention away from that and to communities. We don’t want this authoritarian feeling celebration happening for one person in Washington D.C. I think it’s crossing a dangerous line with the use of the military,” said Gentry.

1,400 people are already signed up to attend the protest in Augusta with the potential for more to show up.

“It’s actually really, really encouraging and is instilling my faith again in humanity and our country. The community here is so supportive, and I think they really care about what’s going on and they want to make their voices heard,” Gentry said.

Organizers say this will be a nonviolent protest and anyone who does not follow that will be asked to leave.
