FREE AMERICA Walkout Salem
2026-01-20 14:00 - 15:00 | Riley Plaza, 1-21 Margin St, Salem, MA, 01970
On January 20, 2026, we’re walking out of work, school, and everywhere else at 2 pm local time – because a Free America begins the moment we stop cooperating with fascism.

When we pull our labor, our money, and our consent, we reveal the truth: we can shut this country down until we get the freedom and dignity we’re owed. That’s our leverage. That’s our power.

One year into Trump’s second regime, we face an escalating fascist threat: raids on our communities, troops occupying our cities, attacks on immigrants, families torn apart, mass surveillance, and terror used to keep us silent. It is time for our communities to escalate as well.

RSVP for updates

2025 was a year of marches that showed our collective strength. And as the threats grow, our movement must evolve and escalate. Trump and his allies have already made clear that a second term would bring a deeper wave of misogyny, racism, xenophobia, and violence than the first.

It is time for our communities to escalate as well. This walkout is a protest and a promise. In the face of fascism, we will be ungovernable.

NO War With Greenland, Stop War In Ukraine 🇬🇱🇺🇦 Peaceful Protest
2026-01-20 15:00 - 16:30 | 100 Humphrey Street Swampscott, 100 Humphrey St, Swampscott, Massachusetts, 01907
We’ve heard Trump’s renewal threats of invading Greenland and threats to Ukraine ceding their land to Putin. So, I’m inviting you all to come together with me to show the world that We The People Don’t Back Down. (Neither do people across the world, but hey, nothing wrong with a little Massachussetan noise right?) Why? Because We organize. We rise. We protect each other. And when we come together? Things change. Because right now, under an oppressive, oligarchic, misogynistic, corrupt administration, our rights, our bodies, our safety, and our futures are under attack. And we’re not waiting politely for permission to exist. They are openly attempting to drive us apart, against each other, because they know what can happen when people come together to fight for what’s right. We will show them that we are unbreakable. This event is about people’s power in motion. Channeled not just for ourselves, but for everyone. For trans folks. For queer folks. For people of color. For immigrants. For disabled people. For workers. For our kids. For anyone whose life has been treated as disposable by those in power. When people come together around a shared purpose, something ancient and electric happens. We turn fear into hope. Anger into action. Grief into solidarity. Hope into momentum. That’s the collective alchemy, and it’s unstoppable. Expect bold voices, unapologetic energy, fierce joy, and the kind of connection that reminds you: you are not alone, and you are not powerless. Come scream, laugh, cry, chant, dance, march, and take up space. We don’t make ourselves smaller for those that don’t even deserve our presence.This is an invitation and a declaration: We will not back down. We will not be divided. We will fight for each other, freedom, liberation and for the world we deserve, free legal abortions and access to affordable healthcare over poverty and homelessness. No Kings. No Tyrants. No Fascists.

More Info & Email Updates

As far as we know, the Mall is continuing to restrict parking to mall shoppers only. We continue to invite you to be creative while we work on a solution to this problem. If you scroll down further, there are some suggested alternative parking possibilities.

There was a small group of counter-protesters again at the Saturday vigil, and we may expect to see counter-protesters more regularly now. The important thing is to not engage with counter-protesters. Please ignore them. We will continue to peacefully exercise our first amendment rights.

A weather reminder for our gatherings during the winter season — by default, we will plan to gather, and ask people to use their own judgment about what conditions are safe for them. Please do be safe. If Burlington schools close due to weather, we will cancel the usual 11am-1pm public gathering and the organizing team will make some other arrangement to safely maintain the continuity of our vigil for that day that does not require the general public.

As usual, this gathering outside ICE is a very targeted action; it’s not the venue for protesting other causes. We all care about many issues, but each Wednesday we come together across differences. Regardless of your views on any other political or social issues, if you support immigrants and their constitutional rights and are committed to nonviolence you are welcome to join us. We have a stash of signs and small U.S. flags that have been donated, and you’re welcome to bring your own signs and U.S. flags if you have them.

Here are some parking options that have been suggested, while we explore a resolution with the mall or other options:

For those looking to switch to public transportation, one option is the 350 Bus. This runs from Alewife to Burlington Mall Rd. You can park or bike to the Alewife T stop, and the bus leaves Alewife at 10:46am and arrives at District Ave. at 11:15am.

Alternatively, you can drive to Burlington and park at Simonds Park, at Rev. Andrew’s United Church of Christ (6 Lexington St. Burlington, MA), or at Rabbi Abramson’s Temple Shalom Emeth, 16 Lexington St.,and walk to the 350 bus stop at the intersection of Cambridge St. and Bedford St. That bus leaves at 11:09am and arrives at 11:17am. If you’d like to arrive before 11:00am, there’s a bus that leaves an hour earlier at 10:09am.

You can park at Wegmans. 53 Third Avenue. Burlington, MA 01803. The Lowell LRTA #14 bus goes by there and stops at Lexington and Mall Rd. That bus is free.

Bearing Witness attendees Tina & Jay continue to collect food pantry donations to help local immigrant families. You can drop off unopened food/health/household items by the tree.

Regardless of any other political views, you are welcome to join us and demand Justice 4 All so long as you do so non-violently.

Our friends at Bearing Witness have been hosting gatherings at this location for many weeks. We are an unaffiliated group, but very much aligned with their values and mission. Our goal is to add to the total number of hours that citizens stand in non-violent opposition to the deplorable detainment conditions at this location. If you have been to Bearing Witness on Wednesdays, we would love to have you at Justice 4 All Thursdays.

Weather

All attendees are ultimately responsible for making their own decisions about travel. The organizers are going to use the following guidelines to modify or cancel events in advance. A sudden change in conditions just before or during events, such as a tornado warning or severe thunderstorm warning, could happen and organizers will do their best to communicate any decisions appropriately.

No change to event:Normal to heavy RainWindy, but no warningsLight snow on ground, but not falling

Cancel:Burlington schools cancelledTemp/Wind Chill < 20FStorm advisory with snow or high wind predictedFreezing rain falling or predicted

Shorten event in advance, limit to standout:Temp/Wind Chill < 30FTemp Ok, but ground wetDeep snow in grassy area, sidewalks clear

What happens at this ICE office?

ICE personnel depart from District Ave. in unmarked vans with tinted windows on missions to abduct immigrants across New England. Immigrants may also show up at the office for appointments. The facility on District Ave was never intended to be a detention center, yet immigration lawyers and media interviews reveal that people are now being housed here in conditions that have been called “abysmal” and “unsanitary.”

What to expect at Justice 4 All?

We are committed to nonviolence, and we stand peacefully with signs outside the facility. We do not block the entrance, we do not physically approach ICE agents as they walk to/from the parking lot, and we do not block traffic on District Ave.

Signs

This is a very targeted action outside the ICE facility, so it’s not the venue for protesting other causes. Even though we care deeply about other issues, while outside ICE we must remain focused on immigration.

Parking and other tips

For parking, please use the Macy’s overflow lot (75 Burlington Mall Road, follow signs for Macy’s, see map). For those with mobility challenges, please keep in mind that the lots closest to ICE — the FAA lot beside ICE and the BAE Systems lot directly across the street from ICE — have both been blocked off. There are restaurants nearby (Clover, Pressed Cafe, Chipotle) to get food and use the bathroom. Before arriving, please consider your own self-preservation (citizenship status) and self-care (sunscreen, hydration, etc.).

If you would like to receive updates on Justice4All Thursdays and reminders of our events, please add your email below to join our list. We’re excited to reinforce the work of our friends at Bearing Witness and to support our immigrant neighbors. We hope that you will join us.

See you in Burlington!

Get ICE out of Home Depot Natick

We’re standing out at the Natick Home Depot entrance, sending a clear message to stop allowing ICE raids on their property and to boycott shopping there!

All over the country, ICE agents are targeting immigrants in and around Home Depot, and these atrocities are happening on Home Depot’s watch, on its properties, with its silence.

The Home Depot has not publicly resisted or condemned these raids or demanded that the Administration stop assaulting and abducting people on and outside its properties. With its silence and inaction, Home Depot has become ICE’s passive partner.
