The 50501 Movement, an anti-Trump protest organization, plans to hold a series of protests across the United States over Easter weekend.
The group claims to have 400 events scheduled nationwide on Saturday, in all 50 states. It also claims to be mobilizing over three million people.
“We are trying to protect our democracy against the rise of authoritarianism under the Trump administration,” Hunter Dunn, a spokesperson for the group, told the Washington Post.
The 50501 Movement’s name stands for “50 protests. 50 states. 1 movement.” It is self-described as being led by people who “have been on the front lines of justice, marching in support of Black Lives Matter, women’s rights, LGBTQ+ advocacy, and disability rights.”
The group first gained prominence with its initial protests on February 5, 2025, which saw over 80 protests nationwide.
In a post about the protests on their website, 50501 says, “April 19 will be a Day of Action: a nationwide grassroots response to authoritarian threats, political overreach, and the erosion of democracy.”
The post continues:
“In all 50 states, local communities are taking action in their own way. Some are rallying or marching in the streets. Others are hosting food drives, teach-ins, mutual aid pop-ups, or voter registration events. Wherever and however people show up April 19, one thing is clear: This movement is growing — and it belongs to all of us.”
An interactive map on the organization’s website shows where each protest is scheduled to take place.
The organization’s Instagram page features support for Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an illegal alien, alleged wife-beater, and member of MS-13, who has been deported by the Trump administration after illegally living in Maryland for over 15 years.
A post shared by the group claims, “Trump and his administration’s actions prove that they are willing to ignore the courts and violate the constitution due to their vendetta against immigrants. Kilmar and many of the Venezuelans sent to CECOT are INNOCENT. They must be released, saved from the hell that is that facility and given due process.”
