US EditionNashville's No Kings protest sees large turnout despite spotty weather
- On June 14, 2025, over 1,000 people gathered peacefully at Bicentennial Mall State Park in Nashville for the nationwide No Kings protest against President Trump's military parade and immigration policies.
- The protest arose from opposition to a costly $45 million military parade, increased federal military actions, ICE raids, and what organizers called a dangerous escalation of authoritarian government repression.
- Participants formed a diverse, multiracial, and intergenerational crowd who danced, chanted, carried flowers as symbols of peace, and emphasized that resistance is a sacred act against colonialism and suppression.
- Speakers condemned immigration raids as cruel and dehumanizing, noting families being torn apart and urging due process for deportations while warning that the contest is existential and abuses threaten democratic norms.
- The event signaled ongoing national resistance to federal policies seen as authoritarian, with calls for participation beyond protests to safeguard civil rights amid growing intimidation and government overreach.
