Join Common Defense and the Fayetteville Resistance Coalition for an evening of connection, learning, and community building!

From 6:00–7:00 PM, we'll host a hands-on class focused on using your voice to make an impact — whether through social media, a letter to the editor, or other public platforms. This workshop will help you find your writing voice, share your story with confidence, and activate your leadership in this pivotal moment.

Then, from 7:00–8:00 PM, we'll shift into an organizing meeting with the Fayetteville Resistance Coalition to strategize, plan upcoming actions, and build solidarity for the road ahead.

This event is for community members, veterans, service members, military families, and anyone ready to take up space and speak truth to power. You don't need prior experience — just a desire to connect, learn, and make a difference.

Grab a beer, meet your community, and leave inspired to use your voice to defend democracy. 🍻

Every Wednesday from 9 AM to 5:30 PM, we will take our stand at the Cross Creek Linear Park Fountain on Green Street, directly across from the U.S. House of Representatives office in Fayetteville. This is not business as usual—our federal government is spiraling into chaos: reckless, unaccountable, and out of control. Our Representatives must restore order, draw the line, and put the people first. We will not be ignored. We will make our voices heard!

This is a recurring protest each Wednesday. In addition to our physical presence we will have action item(s) for participants to engage in so that we are turning protest into action. Stop by, take action - stay for as long as you wish.

In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings.

“NO KINGS” is more than just a slogan—it’s the foundation our nation was built upon. Born in the streets, carried by millions in chants and on posters, it echoes from city blocks to rural town squares, uniting people across this country to fight authoritarianism together.

The president thinks his rule is absolute. But in America, we don’t have kings, and we won’t back down against chaos, corruption, and cruelty. Our peaceful movement is only getting bigger and stronger. Join our movement and grow with us.

Join your neighbors at Cross Creek Linear Park Fountain, right in the heart of the city we love. This is more than a protest - it’s a stand for community, for democracy, and for each other. We gather in strength and solidarity, to show that in America, power belongs to the people! Bring your voice, your signs, and your belief in a better future. Let’s build a movement that reflects who we really are: united, courageous, and ready to rise together.

Join us to chant, speak out, and raise your signs high—let’s make it clear that we will not tolerate would-be kings in America. This country was built on freedom, not monarchy. We’ve got a powerful lineup of speakers ready to deliver this message loud and clear.

A core principle behind all No Kings 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 and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.

On the day created to honor the dignity of work, we will stand shoulder-to-shoulder to say: enough. Enough greed. Enough corruption. Enough selling out the American worker. This is more than a protest. It’s a public stand for the future we want — fair wages, safe workplaces, and a government that works for the people, not just the ultra-wealthy.

We must stop the billionaire takeover. America is fast turning into an oligarchy and that must stop NOW. Trump and his billionaire friends are converting the government into their private slush fund. Trump just passed the largest wealth giveaway in the history of the US. The money they take from working families, they put in billionaires’ pockets and set aside to fund Trump's private army of ICE agents.

Join the Fayetteville Resistance Coalition on a back-to-school supply drive and protest at the Fayetteville, NC Amazon Fulfillment Center as we demand:

• End "union-busting" and suppression of workers seeking to unionize or enter into collective bargaining agreements

• Consumers shop at small businesses and buy local

• Companies display breakout tariff cost increases on products to inform consumers

• Elected officials are held accountable to explain cuts to Social Security, VA, Medicaid, public broadcasting, and other social programs

Please note: A core principle behind all our 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. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.

NEXT DATE OF ACTION 8/16!

On Saturday August 16th, from 9:30-11:00AM, please join the Fayetteville Resistance Coalition and your fellow North Carolinians for a celebration of freedom and democracy. We are protesting to send a clear message: We are "Undefeated Against Tyranny." We will not tolerate fascism. We demand an end to executive overreach, ensuring due process and rights for all. ICE will NOT be tolerated in our community. Immigrants make us great and marginalized communities deserve equal rights and representation. This is part of a unified effort along the entire I-95 corridor, as well as other road stretches across America, including in the Triangle.

We are committed to a peaceful demonstration and violence or perceived intention of such acts is absolutely prohibited. RSVP here on Pol-Rev or just show up!

EMERGENCY PROTEST : Silent protest against Fayetteville City Council (District 5) hopeful, Enrique Roberto "Ranger Rick" Murillo

LEARN MORE ABOUT THIS AT bit.ly/RANGERRICK

Join us as we line the streets and stand (physically or metaphorically) shoulder-to-shoulder in a wall of visibility to show our collective strength.

Our "Stand Up" is a non-violent, non-confrontational, but highly visible action to demonstrate our shared values and commitments as Americans. Participants will gather in orderly lines along the approaches to Segra Stadium, holding signs or flags and wearing shirts that show our commitment to America as a nation of laws, Constitutional checks and balances, civil rights, due process for all, and welcome for immigrants and people of all backgrounds. Participants will stand strong, but mostly silent, showing by their presence and numbers the strength of our movement.

Wanna make some noise? There will be designated chant stations. The map shows our central starting point, but we will form our wall along Hay and Ray Streets. Find us there and take your stand!

On Sunday July 20th from 9:30-11:00AM, please join your fellow North Carolinians along I-95 for a celebration of freedom and democracy. We will be bannering across bridges from south Fayetteville north to Benson. This is part of a unified effort along the entire I-95 corridor, as well as other road stretches across America, including in the Triangle. These bridges and overpasses have been scouted and vetted for safety/accessibility as part of our initial July 6th event. "Undefeated Against Tyranny" is our unifying theme for the event, but each of us has our personal reasons for speaking up and out!

In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings. 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 cracked down on free speech, detained people for their political views, threatened to deport American citizens, and defied the courts. They’ve done this all while continuing to serve and enrich their billionaire allies.

🚨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.🚨

The flag doesn’t belong to Donald Trump. It belongs to us. We’re not watching history happen. We’re making it.

On June 14th, we’re showing up everywhere he isn’t—to say no thrones, no crowns, no kings. Check out nokings.org for more information.

A core principle behind all No Kings 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.
