On Saturday November 4, 2017 two rallies where held in Downtown Seattle. This Nightmare Must End: Trump/Pence Regime Must Go! Started at 12:00pm at Seattle City Hall and was hosted by North Seattle Progressives, Refuse Fascism, and Refuse Fascism-Seattle. This event took place over a two week period to raise awareness. This extended timeframe, they believed, would help their message grow in size and determination (Facebook). With about two hundred participants in attendance this rally sought to bring an end to what they termed “our national nightmare” i.e. the Donald Trump and Mike Pence regime, a regime that Refuse Fascism organization believes disregards basic democratic rights, and suppresses dissent and resistance. The other rally held at Seattle City Hall on November 4, 2017 from 12:00-4:00pm was Stand up to Trump, Fight White Supremacy. This event was hosted by Puget Sound Anarchists and Insurrectionary Youth Action (IYA). The goal was to “put an immediate halt to the functioning of the Trump regime. According to their website, members… are attempting to stage an event… modeled after the Occupy movements of 2011” (pugetsoundanarchist.org). Both of these rallies were held in the same location and started at approximately the same time.
