Speak Out with MEJA! Fully Fund Our Public Schools!
2025-10-21 15:00 - 16:00 | Massachusetts State House
Tuesday, 10/21: Speak Out with MEJA! Fully Fund Our Public Schools!
Please join us and raise your voice alongside MEJA and allies in support of our students and fully funding our public schools!
Time: Tuesday, October 21 at 3:00 pm
Location: State House steps (24 Beacon St, Boston)
Massachusetts is facing cuts to education and healthcare, but we have the power to stop irreversible harm to our students and our communities’ futures. The federal government continues to siphon funding and supports from our students, especially our special needs, multi-lingual, LGTBQ+, and lowest-income students. This year, the Governor vetoed critical funding to reimburse local school districts for funds lost to charter schools—money that is essential for supporting investments in our public schools. Now, state legislators have an opportunity to override the Governor’s veto and prevent further gaps in funding our classrooms.
Please register at https://actionnetwork.org/events/speak-out-with-meja-at-the-state-house and be part of our collective voice!
The community is demanding equitable funding! With Fair Share funds, we can prioritize closing funding and opportunity gaps. COME RALLY! COME SHOUT OUT! COME SPEAK OUT.

NO KINGS Boston
2025-10-18 12:00 - 15:00 | Boston Common Bandstand, 139 Tremont Street, Boston, MA, 021111, United States
NO KINGS Boston

BOSTON SAYS NO KINGS!
“We’re wicked pissed. Wicked loud. Wicked united.”
Join us Saturday, October 18, as we take to the Parade Grounds of Boston Common!
We’re standing together against the abuses of power, cruelty, and corruption of this Regime and saying with one voice — wicked loud —: “America has No Kings!”
Boston, we can’t stand by. We won’t back down. We will be at the Parade Grounds of Boston Common (Beacon & Charles St), a historic ground for resistance and assembly, we will show what organized, peaceful, nonviolent people power looks like.
Peaceful? Absolutely. Passive? Never.
Join the ACLU of Massachusetts, Indivisible Mass Coalition, Mass 50501, and partners from across the pro-democracy and pro-worker movement as we rise together. This is not a typical rally: learn how to get involved locally at our action tables, participate in creative resistance and enjoy entertainment on our main stage.
Boston is the birthplace of the American Revolution. No Kings is about defending that legacy — and stopping tyranny and authoritarianism in its tracks. This country doesn’t belong to strongmen. It belongs to us, the people. 💪 The power is in our hands.
OUR CALLS TO ACTION:

Protect our immigrant neighbors who are being profiled, threatened, and kidnapped. Join a community ICE watch group so agents know we are watching them, volunteer to assist with vital mutual aid, bond and legal needs, and stand out in solidarity at ICE offices. More information from organizations, including LUCE, MIRA, BIJAN, and Bearing Witness @ ICE in Burlington.
Fight with your dollars: Hit them where it hurts by boycotting corporations and billionaires that are doing Trump’s bidding. Don’t check out at the checkout; patriotic dissent happens everywhere!
Hold your Reps accountable: Keep the pressure on and keep calling them out. Use the 5Calls app. Email and show up at their offices. If they can’t fix this, we’ll find others who will.

A core principle behind all No Kings 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.

The Climate for Climate Policy under a Hostile Regime
2025-09-30 19:00 - 20:30 | Zoom
The Climate for Climate Policy under a Hostile Regime

Every week, we hear in the news about new assaults on environmental protection from the Trump administration. Blocking clean energy projects. Opening up new areas for drilling and mining. Throwing money at fossil fuel companies and executives while eliminating resources for renewables and energy efficiency. Censoring and defunding environmental justice research. Canceling grants. The list goes on.
Trump’s actions are causing and will continue to cause harm. But climate denialism doesn’t change the reality of the climate crisis. What can we do at the city and state level to fight back? Join us for a virtual forum on Tuesday, September 30, at 7:00 pm.
