NO KINGS MARCH

From the nokings.org website NO KINGS (or Oligarchs or Kleptocrats) Flag Day MARCH for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Join us on Saturday, June 14th at 10:00 AM for the Flag Day March for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion—a bold, peaceful demonstration across the Broadway Bridge in Little Rock, Arkansas. We march to uplift the voices of the marginalized, to call for justice in our communities, and to affirm that diversity, equity, and inclusion are not optional—they are essential.

📍Meet-up spot: Margaret Clark Adventure Park (Little Rock Riverfront Park) under the Broadway Bridge

🅿️ PARKING INFORMATION: UNDER THE BROADWAY BRIDGE- This parking location is right next to the meet-up spot and is accessible to those who have mobility needs.

If you start in front of the Robinson Center, you will go WEST on Markham Street, cross over Broadway Street, and take the first right on Bruce Moore/Arch Street. This street dead-ends at the parking lot. OTHER PARKING: You are also welcome to park anywhere downtown. If you park downtown near Robinson Center/The Old State House Museum/Doubletree Hotel— Walk down Conway Street (which runs between Doubletree Hotel and Old State House Museum), over the pedestrian bridge, and that will lead you directly to our meeting spot.

🗓️ SCHEDULE: 9:30AM- Begin gathering at the above Meet-Up spot (more details, maps, and flyers to follow) 10:00AM- Walk across the Broadway Bridge, turn around at NLR Riverfront Park, walk back across the bridge. ~10:45AM- Short Rally @ The Meet-Up Spot The short rally at the end will include speakers, music, and a united call to action.

🧳 PLEASE BRING: 👟Comfortable shoes 💦 Water!! ☀️Weather-appropriate clothing 🧴Sunscreen 🪧Protest Signs, Flags, and Umbrellas

☂️PROTEST UMBRELLAS: Decorate an umbrella with protest messages to use as shade! June 14th also marks Donald Trump’s birthday, a day he has chosen to celebrate with talk of military parades and authoritarian posturing. We reject fear-mongering and exclusion. Instead, we choose unity. While others parade power, we march with purpose. We show the world that our strength lies in compassion, community, and collective action. We believe that diversity strengthens us, equity uplifts us, and inclusion unites us. Whether you’re marching for racial justice, LGBTQ+ rights, accessibility, gender equity, immigrant protections, or education equity—your voice matters here.

Let’s reclaim June 14th as a day of people power. Together, we march—for a world where everyone belongs.

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.

WHAT OUR VOLUNTEERS SAY

I was motivated to get involved in the local Democratic party because it has become clear that the Democrats are aligned with values I feel are important – integrity, honesty, and a culture of caring for all of our fellow Arkansans. This party values evidence-based rationale to help strengthen our community through inclusivity, education, and economic plans that allow everyone to achieve their goals and build a better Arkansas for everyone. The genuine enthusiasm that I see from other members at the local meetings is contagious, and it’s exciting to witness these local efforts making a difference right here in Faulkner county.

Jeff

Working in my community lets me get to know people I likely would not meet otherwise, and lets me share my skills and resources with people who happen to need me at the moment. Whether it is working in the library community garden, working on political activities, or helping with other community efforts, I feel good knowing that my bit of work makes our community stronger for those who come behind me
