WHEN ARE WE PROTESTING?
Every Saturday and Monday at 10AM.
We will line the sidewalks with our voices, signs, and energy. As national protest movements arise, we’ll incorporate their themes into our local efforts—while continuing our regular gatherings at Douglas & Broadway.
WHY WEEKLY PROTESTS?
Troubling developments and attacks on our freedoms continue daily. Weekly action helps us stay persistent, visible, and vocal in defense of democracy.
WHY THIS LOCATION?
This highly visible downtown intersection allows for safe, legal assembly on public property. It’s also home to the Wichita offices of Senator Moran (NE corner, Douglas & Broadway) and Senator Marshall (SE corner, Douglas & Market).
WHAT ARE WE PROTESTING?
In short? Everything threatening democracy.
We stand against attacks on fair elections, government transparency, the rule of law, and basic rights—regardless of race, gender, identity, or political affiliation.
WHO CAN ATTEND?
Everyone.
If you’re dissatisfied with the actions of the current administration—or the inaction of Kansas’ elected representatives—this space is for you. Meet others who care, get inspired, and learn how to get involved.
PROTEST IN ACTION – WHAT ELSE ARE WE DOING?
Protesting is only part of the work.
We also:
> Call, email, and write to elected officials.
> Vote and help others stay informed about elections.
> Join or support campaigns, or even run for office.
> Serve on boards and committees.
> Partner with and highlight local organizations to collect donations, volunteer, and share resources.
When appropriate, protests on Saturdays will feature guest speakers from local social service groups and community organizations, sharing ways we can support those in need right here in our community. Many are under attack and afraid to speak out—we protest for them too. Our collective responsibility is to take care of each other.
