Trump, Good Trouble
Digest more
Nearly 50 cities in Florida will host events protesting the Trump administration under the name “Good Trouble Lives On."
The “Good Trouble Lives On” national day of action honors the late congressman and civil rights leader John Lewis. Protests are expected to be held along streets, at courthouses and other public spaces. Organizers are calling for them to be peaceful.
Barbara Arnwine, the president and founder of the nonprofit civil liberties group Transformative Justice Coalition, said the demonstrations are meant to serve as a means to keep racial justice in the national conversation.
Protests are planned across the nation on Thursday, the anniversary of civil rights icon and Congressman John Lewis’ death. Lewis famously coined the term “good trouble” to describe nonviolent civil disobedience that challenges unjust systems.
