Georgia's leaders stress order ahead of planned protests, distinguishing between peaceful assembly and violence.

The Georgia ACLU, Indivisible Georgia and Jewish Voice for Peace Atlanta are among the co-sponsors of the local events. On social media, the group’s motto — “No thrones, no crowns, no kings” — has become a rallying cry for activists resisting what they describe as creeping authoritarianism.

Minutes after Atlanta’s “No Kings” protest began, organizers announced that the venue’s 5,000-person capacity had been reached.

A metro Atlanta journalist Mario Guevara, known for his coverage of immigration raids and advocacy for immigrant communities, was arrested Saturday during a protest in DeKalb County.
