We don't do Kings in America
Rise up with us on No Kings Day, 6/14We reject Christian nationalism and authoritarian theocracy, and believe in the promise of a mulit-faith, multi-racial democracy.
The right to vote is the bedrock of American democracy. Across our many faith traditions, we are united in our defense of a pluralistic democracy. We are alarmed at attempts to undermine faith in elections and voting rights.
We are partnering with a wide range of religious and civic organizations to expose the authoritarian threat of Project 2025 and the Trump-Vance administration’s attempt to implement the policies within it. Authoritarians use religion to justify trampling on the rule of law. Christian nationalism draws on centuries of exclusionary rhetoric and violence, but we refuse to cede religious or moral ground to extremists who would privilege a small segment of Christians above all other Americans.
Faith leaders, immigrant rights activists, and community members are speaking out against the wrongful deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. We must ensure that the White House hears from all of us around the country. We need your voice.
We are educating Americans about the threat of authoritarian theocracy, building interfaith communities who are showing up, and equipping them with the tools to defend our constitutionally-protected freedoms.
We co-chair the Faithful Democracy coalition and our work conducted in close partnership with Democracy Forward and the Democracy 2025 coalition.

This week on The State of Belief – getting ready for No Kings Day on June 14th, an initiative of the national grassroots organization Indivisible. Co-founder Leah Greenberg explains that No Kings Day is a forceful nationwide response to the royal pretensions on display in Donald Trump's demand for a multi-million dollar military parade on his 79th birthday. Leah joins Rev. Paul Brandeis Raushenbush to discuss the importance of getting involved rather than discouraged, share past Indivisible successes and lessons learned, and the essential role faith leaders and communities play in giving credibility to public actions like this.
Together, we can make a significant impact in this pivotal moment in our nation's history.
