<\/p>\nThousands of \u201cNo Kings\u201d protests will be held across the country, and numerous ones are planned in southeast Michigan, on Saturday, March 28.<\/p>\n
Almost a dozen organizations are planning the protests, aimed at peacefully opposing President Donald Trump, in Oakland County.<\/p>\n
According to Debbie Rosenman, the turnouts for the \u201cNo Kings\u201d protests have been \u201cgrowing exponentially.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rosenman is one of the co-leaders organizing an event in Ferndale this weekend. It will be led by two Indivisible advocacy groups \u2014 Indivisible Huron Valley from Milford and Indivisible 9 from Ferndale.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe believe we had 3,000 people at the event in April 2025, our June event had about 5,000 and by October we had 7,000,\u201d said Rosenman. \u201cWe believe this one will exceed that.\u201d<\/p>\n
She pointed out what the goal of these events are.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe goal is to express our utter dismay at the fact that we are losing our democracy to an authoritarian regime,\u201d she said. \u201cIt is to bring people out as one community so we have one common voice standing against this authoritarian regime.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Oakland County Republican Party said in a statement that it \u201cstrongly condemns\u201d the demonstrations.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhile many concerned activists have expressed interest in organizing peaceful counter-demonstrations, the Oakland County Republican Party\u2019s official recommendation is that our supporters do not attend or engage with the No Kings events,\u201d the party said in a statement.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur county will not be intimidated by organizations whose only aim is to sow chaos and division,\u201d party Chairman Vance Patrick said in the statement. \u201cWe reject the radical and violent tactics that have become the hallmark of the No Kings movement and its extremist sponsors.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rosenman said interest in their advocacy group has also increased over the past few years.<\/p>\n
\u201cMore people are coming to our meetings, signing up for our (weekly) newsletters and coming to our Facebook page,\u201d she said. \u201cWe went from 400 people receiving our newsletter before (President) Trump got re-elected to 1,300 now. We went from having 25 people at our (monthly) meetings to having over 100 coming to our meetings now.\u201d<\/p>\n
She added, \u201cPeople that have never been at a protest, that never were politically active are coming out and they are very much joining this community of people that are speaking out.\u201d<\/p>\n
Several different groups such as Downriver United 734, Stand Up, MoveOn and the American Civil Liberties Union will hold rallies throughout the Metro Area.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen hardworking people struggle to make ends meet while power concentrates at the top, when our neighbors are targeted because of the color of their skin, and when our sons and daughters are sent into conflict without honesty or transparency, that is not a policy disagreement \u2014 that is broken promises,\u201d said Detroit organizer Audrey Bourriaud. \u201cWe are gathering in the streets on March 28 because we love our country, but the moment we stop holding power to account is the moment we hand it away.\u201d<\/p>\n
