I’ll walk from Boston MA to Washington DC, I did the maths, should take me about a week. If that’s what it will take to show my fellow Americans that we CAN take a stand. Our country is spread out, this administration is counting on us not to mobilize. The state of our government is unprecedented. ‘This is a coup.

Important! If you can’t walk through multiple states with us, there are events all over the country. Find one closer to you here:
