NORWICH — Chenango Change Indivisible will hold an anti-Trump “No Kings” rally from 2 to 4 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 17, at East Park in Norwich.

The Chenango County Chapter describes itself on its website as a “non-partisan grassroots community organization.” Though the founding organization openly encourages anti-Trump protests, favoring Democrats and endorses identity-based policy justifications.

At indivisible.org the group states: “We wanted folks to effectively rally behind Democratic allies, help mushy Democrats find their spines, and weaken the resolve of congressional Republicans who might ally with Trump.”

Who is Chenango Change Indivisible?

Chenango Change Indivisible is local group affiliated with a national progressive activist movement that openly opposes President Trump and works to elect Democrats.

Indivisible’s guide tells organizers to strengthen Democratic candidates, weaken Republican opponents and build a base of activists in their hometowns.

A guide written for by the national movement states:

“If there’s one universally accepted truth in the modern age, it’s that sequels suck. And Trump 2.0 will be no exception. Trump, Vance, and their MAGA minions feel vindicated by the victory of their bigoted, fascistic clown show of a presidential campaign.”

Indivisible began in December 2016 in opposition to President Trump’s agenda. Following his reelection, the organization released ‘Indivisible: A Practical Guide to Democracy on the Brink’ in November 2024, outlining its strategy through the 2026 midterms.
