May Day Strong :: National Day of Action

May Day 2025

Trump and his billionaire profiteers are trying to create a race to the bottom—on wages, on benefits, on dignity itself. This May Day we are fighting back. We are demanding a country that puts our families over their fortunes—public schools over private profits, healthcare over hedge funds, prosperity over free market politics.

Standing in Solidarity

A core principle behind our May Day actions is a commitment to nonviolence in all we do. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.

#50501

50501 — 50 protests, 50 states, 1 movement

The first #50501 protests were a decentralized rapid response to the anti-democratic and illegal actions of the Trump administration and its plutocratic allies. The idea—50 protests in 50 states on 1 day—was born on r/50501 and spread rapidly on social media.

April 17 :: Communities Not Cages :: Day of Action

April 17 #CommunitiesNotCages

The "Communities Not Cages" National Day of Action, organized by Detention Watch Network is co-hosted by the American Friends Service Committee and Immigrant Justice Network. The demonstration calls for an end to immigration detention and deportation policies under the Trump administration's hardline agenda.

The coordinated day of action includes rallies, vigils, banner drops, and large-scale light projections in cities such as Los Angeles, Phoenix, Denver, Atlanta, and New York City. Actions kicked off with an interfaith vigil in Dublin, California on April 16 and will continue through April 19 in Gadsden, Alabama.

The "Communities Not Cages" campaign aims to shut down existing detention centers and halt further expansion. Organizers emphasize community-based alternatives to detention and demand that public funds be redirected toward immigrant support services rather than incarceration. [ Newsweek ]
