Dozens of protesters gathered near the St. Johns Town Center on Monday morning for a “No Kings” rally.
On Labor Day, protesters lined the sidewalk along Town Center Parkway, holding signs that denounced President Donald Trump’s administration and called for unity.
“I think we’re losing our rights as citizens,” Millie Gunell said. “If we don’t band together, I think there’s a really good chance that we are going to lose our democracy, and this country will not be the country that we have always thought it to be.”
Several people driving by the demonstration honked to show support for the protest’s cause.
The “No Kings” theme was orchestrated by the 50501 Movement, a national movement made up of Americans who say they stand for democracy and against what they call the authoritarian action
