Guarding the Legacy of Liberty - No Kings in America
Welcome to Tennessee for Freedom, a bastion of patriotic Tennesseans dedicated to the enduring principles of our great nation. In the spirit of our forefathers, we stand firm in defense of the Constitution—a sacred document that guarantees our freedom and equality. Today, we face a challenge that echoes the very spirit of our nation's birth: the struggle against the shadow of tyranny, the protection of our democratic heritage, and the assertion that no one is above the law. On June 14th, we unite with the No Kings Day movement to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the Stars and Stripes, and to remind those who serve us that their power is derived from the consent of the governed. This is our moment to demonstrate the resilience and unity that has made America a beacon of hope for the world.
As we stand on the precipice of a new chapter in our storied history, we invite you to join us in reaffirming our commitment to the ideals that founded this great nation. On No Kings Day, we come together not to overthrow, but to reaffirm our position as the guardians of our Republic. This is not a call to arms, but a peaceful protest against the narcissistic and authoritarian tendencies that threaten to erode our cherished institutions.
Together, we are the guardians of liberty!
If you stand for America, this is your call to action!
On Flag Day, let your voice be heard as we reject the notion of a ruler who places their ego before our shared values. Join the No Kings Day protests across Tennessee to send a clear message to those in power: We the People will not be silenced!
This is not a partisan issue—it's an American issue. Your presence at these protests sends a resounding declaration that the president is not above the law, and that our country's future lies in the hands of its citizens, not a single individual's whim. By attending, you stand with the very essence of what the Founding Fathers envisioned for our nation: a government of the people, by the people, for the people.
Why now?
Our national symbols are being co-opted to serve a single person's vanity. The same day that our flag celebrates its birth, the Army marks its 250th anniversary. Yet, instead of a unifying event that honors our military and its oath to protect our Constitution, our president has chosen to host a military parade for his own aggrandizement. This misuse of power and resources is a stark reminder of why we must remain vigilant in our defense of democracy and the rule of law. The stars and stripes represent our collective will, not the whims of a would-be king.
Let's show the world what the American People can do if we work together.

What if you can't attend in person?
Your voice matters! Even if you can't join the physical protests, there are other ways to participate and show your support for No Kings Day. Here are some examples:
- Use social media to spread the message. Tweet, share, and post about why you stand for America and against tyranny. Use the hashtags #NoKingsDay to connect with like-minded individuals. If you can, create art or other media to Clown the Crown and encourage the citizens of America to stand up in peace and joy to celebrate that this is OUR nation— not his.
- Contact the leaders of your local church or community and discuss the dangers of political idolatry. Remind them that true Christian values align with the protection of the weak and the upholding of justice.
- Consider boycotting, contacting, and posting about consumer businesses that sponsor the military parade. Let them know that you stand for freedom and that their support of the president's vanity event does not represent your values.
- Call your Tennessee representatives and reiterate your commitment to the Constitution. Encourage them to support Representative Steve Cohen's bill to prohibit the use of public funds for "displays of military force for personal glorification", or thank Representative Cohen directly for making us proud.
