‘No Kings’ protests set for Oct. 18 in Bismarck and across the U.S.


October 14, 2025

A volunteer-organized “No Kings” rally will take place Oct. 18 from noon to 2 p.m. at the North Dakota State Capitol in Bismarck, according to event organizers. The demonstration is part of a nationwide movement that describes itself as peaceful and committed to nonviolent action.

Organizers said the “No Kings” events call attention to opposition against dictatorship and emphasize democratic values. Participants are encouraged to de-escalate potential confrontations and to act lawfully during the event. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, are not allowed at the rally, organizers said.

We provide the independent reporting that non-Native, extractive outlets often overlook. We give our communities the context and the facts they need to make informed decisions.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we exist to illuminate tribal government decision-making for everyone who cares about transparency about Native issues. Because the consequences of restricted press freedom affect our communities every day, our trauma-informed reporting is rooted in a deep, firsthand expertise. Every gift helps keep the fire burning. A monthly contribution makes the biggest impact.
