"No Kings" protest in Montgomery
2025-10-18 09:00 - 12:00 | Riverfront Park in Montgomery, 355 Commerce St., Montgomery, AL, 36104, United States
What are the “No Kings” protests?
The “No Kings” movement, launched by Indivisible, a nonprofit coalition of political action groups, is organizing events in response to what they describe as increasingly authoritarian tactics by President Donald Trump.
The group says Trump is “disappearing immigrants,” deploying troops to cities and threatening democratic processes through voter suppression and redistricting efforts. “The president thinks his rule is absolute,” the group said in a statement. “But in America, we don’t have kings, and we won’t back down against chaos, corruption and cruelty.”
The protests are intended to be nonviolent.
In June, more than 5 million people across all 50 states joined in “No Kings” events. Indivisible says it was one of the largest movements in American history, and they expect the Oct. 18 movements to be bigger and stronger.
Where can Alabamians join the movement in Montgomery?
In Montgomery, participants will meet at Riverfront Park, located at 355 Commerce St., from 9 a.m. to noon. They will march to the downtown fountain, rally and then return to Riverfront Park. The event meets ADA standards, and the route is mainly flat ground. There will be ASL interpretation available.
There will be 12 events taking place across Alabama. For more information and locations, please see this post.

Road Trip To The National Monument For Peace And Justice
2025-10-30 09:00 - 18:00 | The Legacy Sites/The National Monument For Peace And Justice, 400 N. Court Street., Montgomery, AL, 36104, United States
The Chilton County Democratic Party is pleased to announce our upcoming road trip to the National Monument For Peace And Justice on 10-30-2025.
The Legacy Sites invite visitors to reckon with our history of racial injustice in places where that history was lived.
Situated on lands occupied by Indigenous people for centuries, in a region that once held the largest population of enslaved Black people and would later become the heart of the Civil Rights movement, the Legacy Sites offer visitors a powerful opportunity to engage with history and begin an era of truth telling.
About the Sites
Three spaces.
One powerful experience.

Sculpture by Kwame Akoto-Bamfo depicts a man wearing an iron collar like those used on people kidnapped from Africa and trafficked to the Americas during the Transatlantic Slave Trade.
The Legacy Museum
The Legacy Museum offers a powerful, immersive journey through America’s history of racial injustice.
On the site of a cotton warehouse where enslaved Black people were forced to labor in bondage, the Legacy Museum tells the story of slavery in America and its legacy through interactive media, first-person narratives, world-class art, and data-rich exhibits.
Travel through a comprehensive history of the destructive violence that shaped our nation, from the slave trade, to the era of Jim Crow and racial terror lynchings, to our current mass incarceration crisis—and find inspiration in our soaring Reflection Space and world-class art gallery.

The National Memorial for Peace and Justice
The National Memorial is a sacred space for truth telling and reflection about racial terrorism and its legacy.
On a hilltop overlooking Montgomery is the nation’s first comprehensive memorial dedicated to the legacy of Black Americans who were enslaved, terrorized by lynching, humiliated by racial segregation, and presumed guilty and dangerous.
More than 4,400 Black people killed in racial terror lynchings between 1877 and 1950 are remembered here. Their names are engraved on more than 800 corten steel monuments—one for each county where a racial terror lynching took place—that form the main structure of the memorial at the heart of this six-acre site.

Freedom Monument Sculpture Park
Overlooking the Alabama River, Freedom Monument Sculpture Park honors the lives and memories of the 10 million Black people who were enslaved in America and celebrates their courage and resilience.
At this 17-acre site along the very river where tens of thousands of enslaved people were trafficked, breathtaking art and original artifacts invite an immersive, interactive journey and provide a unique view into the lives of enslaved people.
Listen to Muscogee family stories as they were told centuries ago on this very spot. Step inside a train car like those used to traffic enslaved people to Montgomery as you hear trains pass on nearby tracks originally laid by enslaved people. Stand before an authentic dwelling inhabited by enslaved people and marvel at sculptures created from bricks made by enslaved artisans.

From http://drwillboyd.com/:
Meet Dr. Will Boyd:
A Trusted Leader for Alabama
Will Boyd is a proud husband, father, and lifelong servant leader with a proven record in business, education, and public service. Born in Florence, South Carolina and now residing in both Hoover and Florence, Alabama, Dr. Boyd brings a deep commitment to family, faith, and community to everything he does.
A successful businessman and engineer, Will began his career working in manufacturing leadership roles both in the U.S. and abroad, including as a production manager and quality executive with A.O. Smith Water Products and International Filter Manufacturing. His experience in both the private and public sectors gives him a unique understanding of how to grow opportunity, build strong organizations, and lead with integrity.
Dr. Boyd holds a Bachelor of Science in Engineering from the University of South Carolina, an MBA from Regis University, and doctorates in Religion, Psychology, and Organizational Management. He has served as Chancellor of St. James the Elder University and as Dean of Student Success and Assistant Professor of Management at Greenville College. He is also the author of three books focused on leadership, values, and faith.
In public service, Will made history as the first African American elected to the City Council in Greenville, Illinois, and later as the first African American major-party nominee for U.S. Senate in Alabama in 2022. He has also served as the Democratic nominee for Lieutenant Governor in 2018 and for U.S. Congress in 2016.
Will is active in his community and has served on the Board of Directors for the Health Care Authority of Lauderdale County and the City of Florence. He is a proud member of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., where he has held multiple leadership roles.
In addition to his civic and academic leadership, Will is a respected faith leader. He serves as Presiding Bishop of Zion Ministries, Pastor of the historic St. Mark Missionary Baptist Church in Florence, and patriarch of the Holy Catholic Church International. His ministry work spans the globe, offering guidance and support to communities in Alabama and beyond.
Above all, Will is grounded in faith, committed to service, and focused on building a better future for Alabama families.
I Believe!
Since 2015, I have extensively traveled the State of Alabama explaining how I believe we need to:

Support our educators and our students by fully funding high quality pre-K while also investing in HBCUs, community colleges, and trade schools;
Build a stronger economy from the ground up by growing the Alabama workforce as we improve support for small business owners and blue collar workers;
Make healthcare affordable for all as we continue our fight against Covid-19, expand Medicaid, and support the lowering of prescription drug costs;
Fight for voter rights to ensure that every voter’s voice is heard at the ballot box; and
Protect the environment by cleaning up of areas where there is water contamination, modernizing our waterways and ports, installing more electric charging stations, and embracing clean and renewable energy sources as we still rely on an “all-inclusive approach” to energy.

As a servant leader, I believe we need leaders who embody core values which include equality, fairness, and freedom as I envision a day in the near future when every American has an equal opportunity to realize “The American Dream.”
Now is the time us to work alongside each other to fight for:

Ethical excellence,
Economic development,
Educational equity,
Exceptional healthcare for all,
Equal justice for all,
Ending voter suppression, and
Ensuring all Alabamians have their voices heard at the ballot box and a “seat at the table.”

I am especially thankful for all who have worked hard alongside me to make changes worldwide. I sincerely pray my vision for serving the world provides a clear understanding how I believe we can lead our local municipalities, states, and nations forward!
-Will
Dr. Will Boyd,
2026 Candidate for Governor of Alabama

January 8th, 2026 Meeting
2026-01-08 18:00 - 20:00 | Brandon’s Place, 1204 2nd Ave North, Clanton, AL, 35045, United States
Work together to help save our Democracy! All are welcome to come to our meetings.
Our next meeting-and our first for 2026-will be held on Thursday, January 8th at 6:00 pm at our NEW meeting location, Brandon’s Place, which is located at 1204 2nd Ave N, Clanton, AL 35045.
All are welcome to attend, regardless of membership status.
We are pleased to announce our Special Guest Speaker Yolanda Flowers, Qualified Candidate for Governor of Alabama 2026, who will be presenting her platform with a Q&A session following her presentation.

Yolanda Rochelle Robinson-Flowers announced my candidacy for governor on September 23, 2025, for the 2026 gubernatorial election. I am a native of Birmingham, where I attended Henry J. Oliver Elementary School and graduated from Woodlawn High School in 1978. I am a widow, a mother of three, a grandmother of 12, and a great-grandmother of five, soon to be six. When I ran for governor in 2022, I had never run for a political office on this magnitude. It was exceptionally grievous because I had buried my husband of 43 years due to cancer, three months before I announced. I obtained an associate’s degree in Speech, a bachelor’s degree in Audiology, and a master’s degree in Rehabilitation Counseling from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville.
I am a member of the Metro Birmingham Chapter of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), serving as Youth Director. Additionally, I am a member of the Metro Birmingham Chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), a member of THE American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), a member of Alabama Arise, and a member of the Mizpah Grand Chapter Order of the Eastern Star, Hagar Chapter #7. Furthermore, I serve as the Minister of Music at Mount Pleasant Missionary Baptist Church and the musician for the Women’s Division of the New Era Progressive Baptist State Convention of Alabama. Currently, I volunteer my service as the Speech Therapist at Miracle Academy Christian School of Birmingham.
Having made history when I ran for governor in 2022, I continue to travel the state, a service no other candidate has ever done, teaching and meeting with various leaders regarding the inequities displayed in our state; teaching all citizens, who desire to know, on God and Government: The Historical, Biblical, and Constitutional Perspectives, and feeding the homeless, conducting voter registration drives, and serving the poor.
We look forward to interesting conversation, discussion and shared ideas. Please join us-and bring a friend who might be interested in attending as well-as we discuss what promises to be an exciting year with the upcoming midterm elections coming up in November 2026 and many other exciting developments and plans.
If you would be interested in becoming more involved in our leadership or committees,
please provide your contact information by sending an email.

The Chilton County Democratic Party is pleased to welcome David Morgan as our Special Guest Speaker For February 12th, 2026! Calera resident David Morgan is making a bid for election as the the representative for District 41 in the Alabama House of Representatives.
From The Shelby County Reporter:
David Morgan has officially qualified as the Democratic candidate for Alabama House of Representatives for District 41, which includes Chelsea, Calera, Columbiana, Harpersville, Wilsonville and Westover in Shelby County.
Morgan, a Shelby County resident, announced his candidacy as part of what he describes as a campaign centered on restoring accountability in state government and refocusing lawmakers on practical solutions to everyday problems facing Alabamians.
“I’m running because the government should listen to the voices of the people it serves,” Morgan said. “Decisions are being made in Montgomery without accountability, and everyday Alabamians are left dealing with the fallout.”

2026-03-28 10:00 - 12:00 | Public corner sidewalk, 101 7th St S, Clanton, AL, 35045, United States
About this event
No Kings-Clanton March 28th 2026
We have the power and are claiming it together. No Thrones. No Crowns. No Kings.
What began in 2025 as a single day of defiance has become a sustained national resistance to tyranny, spreading from small towns to city centers and across every community determined to defend democracy. Our peaceful movement is bigger than ever.
When our families are under attack and costs are pushing people to the brink, silence is not an option. We will defend ourselves and our communities against this administration’s unjust and cruel acts of violence.
On March 28th, rise up, take to the streets, and say it loud: no thrones, no crowns, no kings. We’re not watching history happen—we’re making it. Join us.
A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.
