Two Rallys in Omaha on Saturday, March 25

MAR 25: Fight FASCISM In NEBRASKA - Omaha, NE
Sat Mar 25th 2:00pm - 5:00pm

Gene Leahy Mall, 1203 Farnam St, Omaha, NE 68102, USA


Counter protest the "Make America Great Again" rally and fight fascism!

Bring signs expressing your anger towards the Trump Administration, and their decisions, like voting Betsy DeVos as our secretary of education, enforcing a Muslim and refugee ban, and actively targeting Reproductive Health care. Rally together for your Muslim and undocumented neighbors. Come in support of your LGBTQIA community members. Stand for women's rights. Stand for what is right!!

Human rights are at stake. This is no longer a party issue, this is an attack on all of us. Let's make our voices heard by showing as much support as we can for equality in Nebraska.
