For those who have been joining Indivisible Grand Junction’s regular pop-up protests, and everyone else, Indivisible has announced that the time of their regular Tuesday, January 20th protest is being moved from noon to 2:00 p.m. to join with the MESA COUNTY FREE AMERICA -STOP ICE protest scheduled for 2:00-3:00 p.m. the same day at the southeast corner of 12th and North, known to some as “Stadium Corner.”
The Mesa County Free America protest is being organized by the Women’s March.
The description of the event on the Women’s March page is as follows:
One year into Trump’s second regime, we face an escalating fascist threat: raids on our communities, troops occupying our cities, attacks on immigrants, families torn apart, mass surveillance, and terror used to keep us silent. It is time for our communities to escalate as well.
2025 was a year of marches that showed our collective strength. And as the threats grow, our movement must evolve and escalate. Trump and his allies have already made clear that a second term would bring a deeper wave of misogyny, racism, xenophobia, and violence than the first.
Convicted felon/sexual abuser/President Trump responds to a Ford factory worker who called him “Pedophile Protector” while Trump was touring the factory.
On January 20, we call on our communities to organize teams, call your neighbors and classmates, and turn your back and walk out on fascism. Host mutual aid planning meetings, organize public service, but walk out to block the normal routines of power, and make the stakes real. This is a protest and a promise. In the face of fascism, we will be ungovernable.
★ We walk away from fascism. ★
★We walk towards a Free America.★
★We fight for a future that belongs to us all. ★
★ Everybody in, nobody out. ★
★ Welcome to the Free America Walkout ★
