"Americans in France, as well as other nationalities who want to express their solidarity, are invited to join the demonstration on Saturday afternoon - timed to coincide with thousands of events in the US and worldwide. The No Kings movement denounces Trump's government shutdown, plus his "demolition of Medicare and Medicaid, his attacks on workers and public services in favour of billionaire tax cuts, and his systematic violations of US and international law"."
"Kaitlin Brondum of Indivisible Paris said, "Americans stood with the world when fascism threatened Europe. And we won. "What is happening now in the United States has been devastating not only to Americans at home and abroad, but also to France, Europe and the rest of the world. "In calling for 'no kings' in the US, we invite people from all nations to join us in calling for peaceful defence of democracy in America, and protecting liberty and justice for all.""
Americans living in Paris and supportive non-Americans will gather at Fontaine des Innocents, Place Joachim du Bellay in the 1st arrondissement on Saturday from 3pm to 5pm for a No Kings rally. The event is timed to coincide with thousands of simultaneous protests in the United States and worldwide. The No Kings movement condemns President Trump's government shutdown and cites the demolition of Medicare and Medicaid, attacks on workers and public services favoring billionaire tax cuts, and alleged violations of US and international law.
