For generations, people around the world have used color to show collective strength in the face of oppression. The #NoKings movement is no different. Yellow is our shared signal, bright, bold and impossible to ignore, a reminder that America's power belongs to our people, not to kings.

Anyone have any videos of ICE forcefully deporting them?

Or just the brown people?
