Thousands of Chicagoans mobilize to demand ‘No war on Venezuela!’

By Chanel Crittenden and Gio Araujo

Chicago, IL – On Saturday, January 3, around 2000 people gathered downtown in Chicago’s Federal Plaza to join an emergency rally denouncing the U.S. empire’s latest series of military aggression against the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.

This rally was one of many emergency responses called by the Anti-War Action Network (AWAN) after the United States government conducted bomb strikes across several Venezuelan territories: the capital Caracas, Aragua, La Guaira and Miranda. U.S. President Donald Trump announced on Truth Social that the invasion concluded with the kidnapping of the democratically-elected president Nicolás Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores.

DC Against Trump Coalition shuts down racist curfew zone

Washington, DC – Before organizers from the DC Against Trump Coalition (DCAT) even finished setting up for their August 23 rally at 14th and U Streets in Northwest Washington DC, community members began spontaneously chanting “Fuck Trump!”

Anti-Trump sentiment has been sky-high in Washington, DC since August 11, when Trump issued an executive order sweeping away the city’s home rule powers, federalizing the Metropolitan Police Department and flooding the city with federal law enforcement and National Guard troops.

CIUDAD DE NUEVA YORK, 25 de julio de 2025 — Como parte de un Día Internacional de Acción, más de mil personas se manifestaron hoy frente a la sede de las Naciones Unidas (#ONU) para exigir “¡Dejen de matar de hambre a Gaza YA!”

NEW YORK CITY, July 25, 2025 — As part of an International Day of Action, more than 1,000 people rallied in front of the #UnitedNations (#UN) headquarters here today to demand “Stop Starving Gaza Now!”
The rally, and subsequent march through midtown Manhattan, were organized by the local chapter of the #PalestinianYouthMovement (#PYM), with the support of many partner organizations. #JewishVoiceForPeace (#JVP) played an important role as it was asked by PYM to mobilize its members and hold down a picket line prior to the start of the rally.
Protesters were urged to bring pots & pans, noisemakers — and their rage.
Signs and banners were welcome, especially those emphasizing ending the #Israeli siege and the starvation of #Gaza.
