Indicting the Trump/Pence Regime for Crimes Against Muslims, Bringing the Message: Trump/Pence Must Go!
The impact of the fascist Trump/Pence regime is getting worse – all over the world. In the wake of the recent massacres of Muslims in New Zealand hundreds responded, overwhelmingly Muslim organizations. They marched and rallied in midtown New York in a United Against Islamophobia protest.
Refuse Fascism spoke at the rally bringing the message that the Trump/Pence regime must be driven from power and had a major impact on the crowd.

The people who came to protest were mainly Muslims; many came from being organized in the mosques with many women wearing the hijab with long sleeves. In the mix was a significant number of rebellious young people, especially young women who were angry and spirited. Chants along the march rang out: “No justice no peace” and a chant linking crimes against Mexican people and Palestinians. Many in the crowd took up the Refuse Fascism chant: “No ban, no wall, the Trump regime has got to fall”.

Comments from Two Refuse Fascism organizers:
“I thought the crowd was very receptive to us. Travis Morales’ speech highlighted Refuse Fascism’s beliefs and garnered a lot of positive reactions from the crowd. People were already taking pictures of the banners and making donations for the Trump/Pence Must Go! stickers. But after the speech, more individuals were asking about Refuse Fascism and taking more handouts. It was a successful protest on all fronts.”
“I probably gave out close to 200 stickers throughout the rally but at least 40 or 50 of those went to kids. These kids are wise beyond their years in the face of fascism and I’m proud of their parents for bringing them to the rally.”
A Very Positive Response To Refuse Fascism’s Message
All the speakers received copies of Refuse Fascism’s Call To Action. Hundreds of copies of the Call To Action and palm cards for the BA film “The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go!” were distributed. Over 200 Trump/Pence Must Go stickers also went out with many going to young kids brought by their parents.
Young people asked about the Refuse Fascism organization and what we would want after Trump/Pence are removed from power. We answered that we would need to come together to make demands about how to make our world a better place if/when that were to happen.
A big focus from the organizers on stage was Islamophobia and white supremacy. One of the first chants from the stage that a women co-MC did, “No Trump, No KKK, No Fascist USA!”. The whole day was characterized by a spirit of standing together in the fight against white supremacy and islamophobia – a more radical and defiant spirit.
