The next No Kings Day is coming
The next No Kings Day will be different. Join the No Kings kickoff call this Thursday, 9/10 at 8pm ET/5pm PT to learn about the national day of voter participation being planned for this October.
Please join Kona Indivisible & Matriarchy Rising for our 4th “No Dictators” protest in Kona.
We will not allow the fascist, orange menace to steal our vote by disenfranchising voters using various methods. All voters must have a plan to ensure their vote is counted by placing your ballot in a secure drop box and voting early!
This event is also a Food Drive for Aloha Latinos.
Food Drive: Let’s show support and solidarity for our cherished local migrant Latino community who have been intensely impacted by the illegal and cruel actions of Donald Trump. Let’s help ease the pain for migrants who have been displaced and traumatized by ICE on Hawai’i Island. We are all in this together!
