IRON MOUNTAIN — The second in a series of nationwide “No Kings” rallies and marches will take place Saturday.

Locally, an event is scheduled for 1 p.m. outside the Dickinson County Courthouse in downtown Iron Mountain.

A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action, No Kings states on its website.

“We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events,” the statement reads.

Events are also scheduled at 10:30 a.m. Saturday outside the Iron County Courthouse in Crystal Falls, at noon Eastern time in Escanaba and at 10:30 a.m. Eastern time in Marquette.

The “No Kings” movement aims to mobilize protesters “to defend democratic norms and reject authoritarianism,” according to its website.

The “No Kings” movement previously organized mass rallies across the U.S. on June 14.
