BuildTheResistance.org is your real-time window into the growing movement to defend democracy against the Trump Administration’s attempts to systematically dismantle the US government. We’re elevating the 50501 movement and other grassroots movements to #BuildTheResistance. Unchecked abuse of executive power erodes the rule of law, upends civil liberties, and creates a culture of fear and intimidation. Strongman politics depend upon your silence and isolation. But we will not be silenced. We are a powerful community that grows as we continue to find our way to each other. From protests in the streets to political, legal, and legislative actions, from whistleblowers to mutual aid networks protecting each other and our communities — the resistance is here. Stay informed. Get involved. Use your voice. Use your skills. Resist.
Who are we?
Just like the 50501 movement, there is no one organization behind BuildTheResistance and it will stay that way. Anyone can help build this hub by adding resources and actions on the “Resist”, “Build”, and “50501” pages, as well as posting with #BuildTheResistance.
This site is being built by concerned everyday people, whose names are intentionally not listed for their own safety. More pages, calls to action, resources, and information will be added in the coming days.
How are we connected to 50501?
to the authoritarian, anti-democratic, dangerous, and, in many cases, illegal actions undertaken by the Trump administration and his band of plutocrats in the first weeks of their 2nd presidency. 50501 is a call for 50 protests in 50 states on 1 day: February 5, 2025. It is being organized by regular people partnering with grassroots organizations in their states, and was originally started on the subreddit r/50501.
We have built this site as a hub for information on the 50501 protests.
