People across the country will again protest in the streets as part of No Kings Day 2, a national day of protest and mobilization against the actions of the Trump administration.
In Park County, residents will have two protests to attend: one in Livingston and one in Gardiner. Indivisible Park County and the Women’s Action Project organize both events. The Livingston protest will take place from 12 to 1 pm, beginning at the corner of River Drive and View Vista Drive near Park High School. Those who cannot march can meet the group at the corner of Park and Main with their signs.
The Gardiner protest will take place from 3 to 4 pm. Protesters will gather at the intersection of Jardine Road and Scott Street. Both events begin with a food drive to help feed needy residents in Park County.
In Livingston, the food goes to the Livingston Food Resource Center, and in Gardiner, it goes to the Gardiner Food Pantry. Neither organization is associated with Indivisible Park County or the Women’s Action Project.
Organizers kindly request that attendees bring one or two food items. Suggested donations include canned protein (no salt added), peanut butter (without added sugar), cooking oils, hearty soups and chilis, can openers, cereal without high fructose corn syrup, canned fruit in 100% juice, canned vegetables (no salt added), canned beans (no salt added), whole wheat pasta, and mac and cheese.
The organizers of the two events are committed to peaceful, nonviolent, lawful, and respectful action. They ask all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with their beliefs and values.
