Yes, this silent protest march is organized by Christians, but we are not mean-spirited. We don’t ask you to believe everything we believe—only this: love your neighbor as yourself. That means refusing to do to others what we would not want done to us. For us, this is important work—finding common ground. We come from the Benedictine tradition, which teaches us to “listen with the ear of our hearts.”

We ask you to: Walk in silence with us, or, if you cannot, Hold us in prayer, or, if you’re not a person of faith, Simply send good thoughts for those taking a stand.

We are saying NO to government cruelty—especially toward immigrants, the poor, and the vulnerable. We also stand against: Militarism, Climate destruction, Christian Nationalism, The erosion of democracy, Masked and violent government enforcers

We believe you care about these things too. Stand with us—in body or in spirit.
