‘No Kings’ protests against Trump return to NYC this Saturday; here’s what you need to know

New Yorkers from all five boroughs are set to take to the streets again this weekend for a new round of “No Kings” demonstrations, part of a nationwide day of anti-Trump protests that organizers say aims to defend democracy and push back against authoritarianism.

The March 28 mobilization will mark the third “No Kings” protest held in New York City, with rallies, marches and bridge actions planned across the city ahead of a larger citywide mass march later in the day. Organizers say the demonstrations — which previously drew tens of thousands of participants in New York each time — are a response to what they describe as the continued consolidation of executive power, the weaponization of ICE and other federal agencies, and deep cuts to essential services, including Social Security, Medicaid, and public education.
