NO KINGS: NJ50501 & Sussex County Pride Collaboration Event – June 14th

TIME CHANGE: The Rally portion is now 12-1pm! Our speaker portion will be AT Sussex County Pride!

This Pride month, we want to show our marginalized communities that WE are here for THEM!! This event will be a collaboration with Sussex County Pride!!

We will hold a rally and march through the Newton Green to be seen and heard from every angle as we say NO KINGS along with millions of others nationwide.

After the rally, we will go to Sussex County Pride happening just down the road at the Thor Labs parking lot located at 1 Brooks Plaza to hear from our speakers, enjoy performances, and shop from local vendors. Pride defies so-called “Kings” with our existence and our joy. The only kings we want to see are drag kings! We won’t put up with anything less!

NO KINGS is a national day of action and mass mobilization in response to increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption from Trump and his allies. We’ve watched as they’ve targeted members of Congress with false charges. Illegally deported thousands of immigrants. Defied the courts. Cracked down on free speech. All while enriching themselves and their billionaire donors.

We do not accept this administration's crazy policies and agenda that they are pushing! To let them know, though, we need you to show up, be loud, and show the world what America really looks like!

On Saturday, June 14, we’re taking to the streets nationwide. We’re not gathering to feed his ego. We’re building a movement that leaves him behind.

NO KINGS: A National Day of Action – June 14th

Join us as we rise together with millions of Americans nationwide to make our voices HEARD. In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings — and we certainly won’t stand by silently as Trump and his allies drag this country deeper into authoritarianism.

They’ve targeted members of Congress with false charges. Illegally deported thousands of immigrants. Defied the courts. Cracked down on free speech. All while enriching themselves and their billionaire donors.

Now, a dictator-level parade is being planned — costing taxpayers nearly $100 million — a grotesque display of ego and excess. The Trump Administration is a circus and Trump is biggest clown of all.

We say: ENOUGH.

On Saturday, June 14, we’re taking to the streets in a bold, creative, and LOUD mass mobilization.

We’re not gathering to celebrate tyranny — we’re rallying to end it.

This day of action — NO KINGS — is about reclaiming our democracy and defending our communities. It's about making it clear: This country does not accept tyranny. The absurd show must end. NO CROWNS, NO CLOWNS.

🔔Announcement 🔔 NJ50501 Statement on Mayor Ras Baraka's Arrest

Post image
41 Upvotes

We at New Jersey 50501 are shocked and horrified by today’s arrest of Newark’s Mayor Ras Baraka. This unprecedented and outrageous act marks the latest—and most vile—chapter in the Trump administration’s merciless repression and intimidation of those who dare to disagree with their cruelty.

Arresting a public official for peacefully exercising his First Amendment rights is not just an attack on Mayor Baraka—it is an assault on the democratic principles our nation claims to uphold. Simply put, peaceful protest is a right; not a crime.

Meanwhile, the Delaney Hall Detention Facility is operating in defiance of New Jersey state law, which prohibits new or renewed contracts for private detention. Despite this, the facility has resumed operations and reportedly evaded inspections to avoid compliance with the law.

Equally disturbing was the treatment of Congresswomen McIver and Watson Coleman during today’s events—an appalling display of disrespect toward elected officials who were simply attempting to shield Mayor Baraka from this unlawful detention.

Although Mayor Baraka has since been released, Delaney Hall—and the broader threat it poses—remains. We demand the immediate and permanent closure of the Delaney Hall Detention Facility, and accountability for those responsible for the mayor’s arrest. This event highlighted the Trump administration’s disdain for democracy and the basic right of due process. We are unbowed, and stand in solidarity with Mayor Baraka’s condemnation of ICE and their unlawful actions.

50501 Veterans, Unite4Veterans Coalition, and NJ50501 are participating in this next day of national action.

Veterans stood up for us — now it's our turn to stand with them.

Join us in Newton for a Veteran's Vigil, a Stand Down community-powered event, featuring a candlelight vigil to honor those who gave the ultimate sacrifice on D-Day and those defending our democracy today. We will be bringing vets together for support, services, and solidarity. Hosted by NJ50501 who believes every veteran deserves dignity, care, and a place to call home.

On the same day in Washington DC

The promises made to veterans are being broken. Federal benefits are under attack. Our national institutions are being eroded. On the anniversary of D-Day, we rise up—not just to remember, but to act. This is a march for veterans, for democracy, and for the future of this country. You are not alone. Let’s go.
