Join our rally on the South Side. Gather at the corner of Grant and Livingston!
Theme today: 18: Militarization of ICE
If you think the U.S. is rapidly moving in the wrong direction with healthcare cuts, rising prices, student loan changes, corruption, loss of rights, eroding democracy, personal data collection, tariffs and massive funding for a militarized police force... Say Something!
A single voice can ignite a movement! Bring your signs, bring your voice, bring a friend!
While you're welcome to join no matter what your motivation, each rally this fall will have a theme with special signs to help passersby understand what specifically we're concerned about.

Generally dumbfounded by the chaotic combination of evil and incompetence coming from the White House? Make up a sign and let people know! The intersection is surrounded by the public Village Green Park on all four sides, giving us lots of room to hold signs protesting the ongoing destruction of our democracy by the Trump/DOGE administration. Organized by the Worthington Area Democratic Club and Westerville Progressive Alliance.

We call on the U.S. government to abide by the rule of law and the will of the U.S. public, and to leave behind its long history of interventions, overthrows, and coups, which has included efforts to overturn the government of Venezuela many times, including for much of the past decade.
URGENT! All SIXTEEN judges of the Franklin County Municipal Court need to hear from many people that we want them to ban ICE from our Municipal Court. They need to decide as a body to take action! Please call or write, starting TODAY! Write or call FOUR each day and you’ll be done by the end of the week! Use this template from AAMP to get you started.
