The grassroots US resistance movement to Donald Trump. It started with a thread on the social media site Reddit, and has already spawned significant protests.
An estimated 5 million people turned out to demonstrate in towns and cities across the States on April 5 under the 50501 banner.
Millions more showed up on Easter Saturday, the 250th anniversary of the Battles of Lexington and Concord, key moments in the American revolution.
One feature of the protests is that activists are mobilising around issues that are relevant to their local area, as well as opposing the Trump administration’s flagrant disregard for the constitutional norms of the USA.
The name 50501 stands for 50 states 50 protests 1 movement.
