Above you are looking at the location, in downtown Wichita Falls, of tomorrow's Saturday, June 14, 2025, No Kings in America protest.
The protest will taking place in a park across the street from that big blue building.
I expect a large crowd.
The last time I participated in an anti-Trump protest, in Wichita Falls, was at the start of the first Trump presidency. That protest was in the form of a march from Sikes Lake to a parking lot near where Kemp and Kell Boulevard meet. That protest march was a rather festive affair, with a lot of supportive horn honking from passing vehicles.
The article from this morning's Wichita Falls Times Record News, from whence I attained the above photo, and the below text...
Several organizations will join in an event 10 a.m.-1 p.m. Saturday at 815 Scott Avenue (815 Scott Avenue is also known as Central Park) in downtown Wichita Falls.
The event is billed as "We the People Say No Kings in America" and is hosted by the organizations Indivisible, Red Wine, and Blue and the Wichita County Democratic Association.
"We are speaking out against the authoritarian tactics of this administration, the executive's current misuse of power and resources, and the violation of our constitutional rights," organizer Carroll Wilson said in a news release.
The release said the event will have speakers, music, signs and a children's area.
It said the local event is aligning with other rally movements across the country.
