On Saturday, October 18th, East Central Ohio residents will come together with millions of Americans across the country in a nationwide day of nonviolent rallies at the second No Kings Day of Peaceful Action. There are over 2,600 events nationwide. Attendees are encouraged to wear yellow – a global symbol of peaceful resistance.
The local No Kings Rally will be held at the Tuscarawas County Courthouse on October 18th from 11:30am to 1:00pm in downtown New Philadelphia.
