No Kings movement to protest in West Texas against Trump’s national ICE raids

SAN ANGELO, Texas (Concho Valley Homepage) — “No Kings” protest is scheduled nationwide on Saturday, June 14, with protests in San Angelo and Abilene.

The San Angelo protest is scheduled to be held at Civic League Park, 2 S. Park St., and will run from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. Abilene’s protest is scheduled at 555 Walnut St. from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.

According to the No Kings website, this protest is to “reject authoritarianism- and show the world what democracy is.”

No Kings is an organization whose mission is to protest non-violently the ICE deportations and what they describe as President Trump’s military parade.

The organization’s website states, “On June 14th, we’re showing up everywhere he isn’t—to say no thrones, no crowns, no kings.”

Before and after June 14, No Kings is offering various Zoom calls for trainings such as Know Your Rights Training, No Kings Marshal Training and more. Both the Abilene and San Angelo Police Departments confirmed that they are aware of the protest scheduled for Saturday.

No Kings specifies that no weapons of any kind should be brought to the events and to “de-escalate and act lawfully” at events as well.
