One of the highlights of the Chicago No Kings event was the Third Act Illinois Rise and Resist Flash-Mob Dancers, who even made it onto The Daily Show!! They certainly brought Joy and Fun to many, maybe millions, across America.

NO KINGS Day will be monumental in showing OUR POWER to share HOPE and CONCERN.
