A movement opposing President Donald Trump’s early actions has gained momentum online, with plans for protests in Boston and other U.S. cities. The Massachusetts protest is set to take place near the State House on Beacon Street at noon. Organized under the hashtags #buildtheresistance and #50501, symbolizing 50 protests in 50 states on one day, the movement aims to resist Project 2025, a hard-right government playbook. Flyers circulating online convey messages such as “reject fascism” and “defend our democracy.” Across social media, the movement has garnered support with grassroots efforts in various cities, including Michigan. Key organizer Kelsey Brianne described the Michigan rally as a grassroots effort, emphasizing the need for action rather than passivity. The protests come in response to Trump’s series of executive orders on trade, immigration, and climate change, prompting opposition from Democrats and activists alike. Recent protests in Southern California against Trump’s deportation plans saw thousands taking to the streets, including a demonstration in downtown Los Angeles that temporarily shut down a major freeway. The movement is growing, with individuals across the country coming together to make their voices heard amidst a shifting political landscape.
