We take to the streets to advance an alternative vision.

Peacefully Protest Trump in Marin County

Attention Marinites, don't let SF and Oakland folks have all the fun. You too can express your rage and dismay, peacefully of course, at this gathering in San Rafael. From event organizers Julia Berk and Jackson Baum: "There is no place for sexism, racism, xenophobia, and homophobia in our government. Donald Trump, a man who represents these named values and has made discriminatory remarks reflecting them, does not belong in office. These are NOT the values the next president of the United States should hold. These are NOT the values we want inflicted on our children and the future of our country. Let's do something about it."

WHEN: Sunday, Nov. 20, 4-5:30 pm

WHERE: Protesters will meet in the parking lot at Fourth and Hetherton Streets, across from Taqueria San Jose, and march down Fourth St. (San Rafael), facebook.com/events
