Indivisible co-founder Ezra Levin has published a short piece, “Our Strategic Logic For the Next No Kings”, explaining the thinking behind the next national day of action on October 17. It is a quick read with a two-minute audio version if you’d rather listen.
His argument, in brief: the earlier No Kings days showed the movement’s scale, and the next phase should turn that energy toward protecting the election itself. Two goals stand out: driving early voting so the results are clear and hard to dispute, and building the local, nonviolent capacity to respond calmly if the process is disrupted. He suggests each local event should fit its state’s voting calendar, leaning into get-out-the-vote where early voting is already underway.
