Postcards to Swing States

Trans Rights Die In - Lansing
Gender-affirming care for minors has ended at Corewell, U of M, Trinity, and every other major provider in Michigan. There is no longer a single healthcare provider in the state that is providing these services. This means thousands of trans kids have been cut off from the care that keeps them alive. We know what happens when youth are denied this care: suicide rates skyrocket, families are shattered, and entire communities grieve children who should still be here.

No Kings Protest II
This protest is co-hosted by the Saugatuck Douglas Area Indivisibles and the Holland Zeeland Indivisible groups.
In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings.
Our peaceful movement is only getting bigger and stronger. “NO KINGS” is more than just a slogan—it’s the foundation our nation was built upon. Born in the streets, carried by millions in chants and on posters, it echoes from city blocks to rural town squares, uniting people across this country to fight dictatorship together.
The president thinks his rule is absolute. But in America, we don’t have kings, and we won’t back down against chaos, corruption, and cruelty. Grow our movement and join us.
📍 Where: Centennial Park 📅 When: Noon until 2 p.m. October 18, 2025

Practice for the Douglas Halloween Parade
Join us to coordinate and rehearse our performance for the Douglas Halloween Parade for Adults.

Bring your large protest signs if you have them. We want to focus on aspirational messaging about the democracy we all want and deserve! Please avoid any negative messaging. Our goal is to reach as many people as we can via social media and ideally mainstream media.
The float will have the Statue of Liberty along with other characters in front and protestors will perform a coordinated “walk” down the route. We’re stopping just shy of a dance, but it will be fun!
