NO KINGS: VOTE EARLY! CUMBERLAND COUNTY

A Community Mobilization & Mutual Aid Donation Drive.

THIS IS NOT A MARCH OR SPEAKING ENGAGEMENT. THIS IS A COME AND GO COMMUNITY EVENT AND MUTUAL AID DONATION DRIVE.

Join Fayetteville Resistance Coalition on October 17th as we get out the early vote and say it loud: no thrones, no crowns, no kings!

We decide who represents us. We decide what comes next. We want everyone in our community to be informed and prepared to vote.

For more than a year, millions of people have come together to reject the idea that power belongs to kings, billionaires, or politicians who believe they are above the people and the law. Now, we are taking the next step, turning people power into voter power.

Unlike previous No Kings actions, No Kings: Vote Early is not purely a protest. Instead, on October 17th, it's a day of nonpartisan voter participation. We are bringing our community together to make a plan to vote early, ensuring every eligible voter understands their options for how to vote and has the opportunity to make their voice heard. Because no one person gets to decide our leaders before voters do.

WAYS TO PARTICIPATE

Get Informed: - Stop by to pick up nonpartisan voting info, look up your ballot, and check official early voting details.

Get Involved: - Connect with local community organizations to help protect the vote and discover ongoing ways to build community power.

Get a Ride: - Sign up or volunteer for transportation support to help ensure neighbors can reach polling locations.

Demonstrate: - Bring your signs and join the roadside demonstration to make the message visible.

EVENT DETAILS

Date: Saturday, October 17, 2026

Time: 10am - 2pm

Location: 369 Green Street

WHAT TO BRING

• Mutual Aid Donations: Please consider bringing non-perishable food items to support our Cumberland County neighbors.

• Your Signs: Feel free to bring your signs and demonstrate with us, but please keep the focus on community care and voter mobilization.

Handheld protest signs will be available at the event if desired.

No Kings: Vote Early events are nonpartisan and are designed to increase participation from all eligible voters.

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.

STOP THE MADNESS! - VOTE!

This is not business as usual—our government is spiralling into chaos: reckless, unaccountable, and out of control. Our Representatives must restore order, draw the line, and put the people first. Congress must act and Stop the Madness!

This is a recurring protest each Wednesday. Themes change each week. FRC will provide banners and signs to participants. In addition to our physical presence we will have action item(s) for participants to engage in so that we are turning protest into action. Stop by, take action - stay for as long as you wish.

BRIDGE PROTEST - VOTE!

On OCTOBER 10th, from 10AM - 12PM, please join the Fayetteville Resistance Coalition and your fellow North Carolinians on the Poe Avenue/S. Bragg Blvd overpass in Spring Lake to send a clear message: VOTE!

That's it. That's the message. Our democracy relies on we the people to engage in their civic duty to elect representatives. It is also our civic duty to vote OUT those who have demonstrated they do not represent us and instead cater to MAGA and this authoritarian regime, all while enriching themselves.

The Fayetteville Resistance Coalition is partnering with Common Defense for the September 26th stop in Fayetteville for Operation Take Up Space. We’ll gather at 10 AM at the Umoja Wall of Honor mosaic mural at Fayetteville State University and walk together 1.6 miles to the U.S. Army Airborne & Special Operations Museum, where veterans, military families, and community members will hold an anti-war demonstration.

As veterans, we know the cost of war. We also know that our commitment to the country doesn't end when we take off the uniform. We can stand for peace. We can defend free and fair elections. We can protect the right of every person to participate in our democracy. And we can use our voices and our service to help build something better. On September 26, we won't be doing it alone: across the country, people will be taking up space in their own communities—organizing, gathering, protecting elections, and reminding one another that democracy belongs to all of us. But resistance is only half the story. Because taking up space isn't just about standing against something. It's about building something and remembering that we do that together.

After the rally, we’re heading to Carolina Indie Fest at Hugger Mugger Brewing in Sanford to celebrate exactly what we’re fighting for: art, music, friendship, creativity, community, and joy.

We’ll have voter registration available throughout the festival, live music, local artists, community partners—and a special beer brewed for the occasion.
