Police across Massachusetts, including Boston, are preparing to help make “No Kings” protests happening on Saturday a safe event.
The “No Kings” movement is a “peaceful national day of action and mass mobilization in response to the increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption of the Trump administration,” according to the organization’s website.
The first event was earlier this year as protests were held across the country on June 14, coinciding with Trump’s birthday and a military parade planned in the nation’s capital.
There were more than 100 rallies across Massachusetts included people carrying signs, wearing costumes and identifying themselves as members of everything from the Sisters of Saint Joseph to the American Legion, Mass Senior Action Council and the Young Feminist
