April 4th 2025 Protests
MBDC member quotes:
“Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much.” It was fun to cause some good trouble together and know that you’re not alone in the fight. Other people’s enthusiasm, energy and commitment is inspiring.” Rosemary
“Went to the new. Tesla location in Aliso Viejo. This is. Orange County which couldn’t be. Redder. The cars honking in support was deafening at times. We were there before the protest started and hundreds were already lining the streets.” Mila
“The energy pulsated throughout the crowd. Much much larger than our Riverside protest.” ???
“It was a really good day ! I hope everyone felt empowered and encouraged for all that is still ahead of us ! Enjoyed the passion and the people in the high desert town of Hesperia ! I got a chance to speak to the crowd during the “Community Comments” part of this Nationwide event ! It was invigorating and I look forward to the next one ! ” Carrie
“Today this wonderful man stood up for 3 older ladies. We were hot, we were tired, we were engaging in our 1st amendment rights. I guarantee the security guard knows now that we have a right to be on the steps with our signs.” Patrice
“I’m excited for this day of mass mobilization! We will tell the world we do not consent to the destruction of our country.” ???
“It was my first protest march and it was fun. I enjoyed seeing everybody’s signs and hearing what they had to say.” Debby
“In spite of the “reason for” the event, there was an excited, hopeful, even joyous energy in the air, as a large crowd of citizens gathered, with persons of all ages, some bringing their kids and pups, whose laughter and happy barks added to the cheerful melee…” Susan
Thank you MBDC for making a stand today!
