Assessing the Success of Salt Lake City's 'No Kings' Protest
The second "No Kings" protest in Salt Lake City has concluded, and organizers are reflecting on its outcome and planning future actions.
Organizers, including Jamie Carter, faced pressure to create a peaceful atmosphere at the Utah Capitol on October 18, where protesters gathered to demonstrate against President Donald Trump and his administration.
The event was held amidst concerns over political violence in Utah, following two recent incidents: the death of fashion designer Afa Ah Loo on June 14, who was fatally shot by an armed security guard during a No Kings march, and the killing of political activist Charlie Kirk on September 10 during a rally at Utah Valley University.
Organizers were aware of the need for a peaceful protest, given the recent instances of political violence in the state.
Supporters are encouraged to continue their involvement and look for future opportunities to engage in peaceful protests and activism.
