50501 Illinois is a decentralized, nonviolent movement united to defend democracy, liberty, and justice against the authoritarian overreach of the current presidential administration and its allies. Born from a grassroots call for 50 protests in 50 states on February 5, 2025, we are committed to inclusivity, diversity, and peaceful resistance. This page will include any locations in Illinois with the exception of Chicago which has its own dedicated community. c/50501chicago
