No Kings National Day of Defiance + PRIDE
Saturday, 6/14/2025 is not only the “No Kings, National Day of Defiance” all across America – it is also PRIDE here in Columbus. We’re protesting and celebrating at the same time.
On the day that Trump is throwing himself a military parade for his birthday, we need you to join us to take a stand! We’re protesting Trump’s harmful and anti-democratic actions, but also showing support for our LGBTQ+ members, friends, family and neighbors.
Here are the THREE WAYS you can join our “No Kings in the Whitehouse!” Pride Parade activities on June 14.
March in the parade with us! Register for the event, and then fill out this form that is specifically for folks who want to march in the parade. We have limited spaces – first come, first served!
Register voters and collect petition signatures in the parade crowd! Register for the event, and then sign up for a registration and signature collection training that is specifically for this event.
Join the parade and hold a “No Kings!” sign. Register for the event and then wait to receive additional information in the coming weeks.
We will be sending out information to everyone who is registered as we get closer to 6/14! Remember, please register for the event, no matter what activity you are doing.

Alongside Americans across the country, we are marching, rallying, and protesting to demand a stop to the chaos and build an opposition movement against the looting of our country.
A core principle behind all Hands Off! events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
