A movement opposing the early actions of President Donald Trump’s administration is gaining traction online, with plans for protests across the U.S. on Wednesday. Organized under the hashtags #buildtheresistance and #50501, symbolizing 50 protests in 50 states on one day, the movement is set to take place at state capitols and other cities.
The movement has a strong online presence with websites and social media accounts. Flyers circulating online denounce Project 2025, a conservative playbook for American government and society, with messages such as “reject fascism” and “defend our democracy.” Organizers in Michigan are preparing for a rally with posters reading “No Deportations Ever!” and “Workers Unite!”
