We had a really good crowd in my purple area of a red state! People of all ages. Lots of good signs. I need to make something good for the next one.

Current estimates are 2.3 million across 1400 organized protests.

Now, Europeans, what was you saying?

Edit: estimate is now at 3.5million

Source was something else I was wrong

Edit 2: Yeah, take the numbers with a grain of salt. I'm sure we'll hear the actual numbers sooner rather than later.

:)

They are big crowds. Small towns. Big cities. Old people, young people.

The important part is remembering one thing. There are more of us than there are of the ones in power.

Yep the vanguard are making a showing this weekend - if this is the start I’m liking where we’re headed. Canadians pay attention, I know you’ve been looking for signs of life. I hope this helps you guys relax even a tiny bit.

Went to mine and there was a 350+ person turn out in a small red town. We were all out there as it hailed on us and we were harassed by Trump voters. Doing what we can.

The Manhattan one was pretty big today.

Saw one counter protestor, who oddly was a black woman. She didn't seem entirely well based on what she said when people talked to her

every time I see these I have no idea about it until it's actually happening. I'd love to join and stand up for what's right but I have no idea how to find these before they actually start lol

I’m in super red Cookeville TN and there were tons of people at the courthouse. Kind of shocking tbh.
