Join us as we stand in solidarity for peace and diplomacy in response to potential military actions against Iran.
If the US bombs Iran, we will gather the very next day at noon on the West Side of City Hall, facing Market Street, to protest any form of war.
Our visible display will showcase our commitment to peace, and we will distribute informational flyers to educate passersby on the situation.
Should military actions occur on a Sunday, we will meet at noon on Monday at 2000 Market Street during the regular Mondays @ McCormick's.
We call for an end to US sanctions on the people of Iran and urge for diplomatic support for their right to self-determination.
We also condemn the brutal crackdown and persecution of the Iranian people by their current regime.
Stand with us for diplomacy, not war!

In 2025, millions of Americans united in nonviolent protest against the authoritarian actions of the Trump administration, affirming that this nation belongs to its people, not to kings.
The No Kings Coalition continues to lead the charge, rallying individuals to rise up against ongoing brutality and abuses of power, including recent escalations in Minnesota.
Join us in our nationwide digital organizing effort as we gear up for the next mass mobilization on March 28, culminating in a flagship event in the Twin Cities.
Together, we can reclaim our democracy and ensure justice for all.

Citizens Bank has long financed private prison and detention facility companies even though there have been years of allegations of forced labor, healthcare neglect, and other abuses. Citizens is a lender to companies like CoreCivic and GEO Group, which have caused widespread, documented harm to people in their facilities. Here in Pennsylvania, GEO operates the Moshannon Valley Processing Center, the largest ICE detention facility in the Northeast.
When people in our communities are abducted by ICE, they are usually taken to Moshannon. Join members of Peace, Justice, Sustainability NOW! and Indivisible Philly to tell Citizens Bank that we want them to stop supporting this cruelty. We will protest peacefully with signs on the sidewalk outside the branch and we will have handouts for passersby, to tell them about Citizens' support of abusive detention facilities.
A core principle behind our events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.
Join us as we gather on the North Side of City Hall and march to the Art Museum to Stand Up for Science. This event is organized by Philadelphia Science Action, which aims to promote science and scientific thinking for the advancement of society. With a mission to champion evidence-based thinking in political dialogue, we invite everyone to come together and advocate for the importance of science in our communities and beyond. As we march, we will raise our voices for a future where scientific inquiry drives policy and decision-making, ensuring a prosperous and informed society for all.
Join us on Saturday afternoon, March 14th, from 1:30 to 4:30 PM at Zion Baptist Church, located at 3600 North Broad Street, for the Project Beloved Community: Teach-In & Rally.
In Philadelphia, while our city is strong, many families are facing severe challenges. With some individuals lacking livable homes, good jobs, and safe neighborhoods, it’s clear that we cannot wait for someone else to address these issues.
We must come together to build a beloved community that prioritizes the needs of all citizens.
At the Teach-In, we will unite to voice our demands for a better Philadelphia.
Join us as we stand in solidarity with various organizations, including:

In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings. NO KINGS is a national day of action and mass mobilization in response to increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption from Trump and his allies. We’ve watched as they’ve cracked down on free speech, detained individuals for their political views, threatened to deport American citizens, and defied the courts—all while continuing to serve and enrich their billionaire allies. 🚨On Saturday, June 14, we’re taking to the streets nationwide. We’re not gathering to feed his ego. We’re building a movement that leaves him behind. The flag doesn’t belong to Donald Trump; it belongs to us. We’re not watching history happen; we’re making it. On June 14th, we’re showing up everywhere he isn’t—to say no thrones, no crowns, no kings. Check out nokings.org for more information. A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action, and we expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
Join us every Monday at noon outside Senator McCormick's Philadelphia office for 'Mondays @ McCormick's', an urgent protest against the erosion of our democratic rights. We are living in a MAGA-republican coup, and it's time to stand up and fight back! Together, we will peacefully assemble to demand that Senator McCormick listen to the voices of his constituents and represent all of us, not just the wealthy elite. Our democracy and rights are under threat like never before, and we won’t back down until our demands are met. Our agenda includes stopping the harmful legislation inspired by Trump's project 2025, rolling back unconstitutional funding pauses, and ensuring that vital programs for vulnerable communities are protected. Let’s unite and resist the authoritarian agenda that jeopardizes our future!
We all march for different reasons, but we march for the same cause: to defend our rights and our future.
If you believe that decisions about your body should remain yours, that books belong in libraries, not on bonfires, that healthcare is a right, not a privilege for the wealthy; if you believe in the power of free speech and protest to sustain democracy; or if you want an economy that works for the people who power it—then this march is for you.
The People’s March is about one thing: our power.
It’s a bold demonstration of the resilience of resistance:
This is our moment to remind Washington elites — and Americans everywhere — where the power truly lives: with the people.
Let’s make it count.
