    Honoring Juneteenth: Reclaiming Justice, Reclaiming Democracy

    On this Juneteenth, we pause to honor the end of slavery in the United States—a defining milestone in our collective pursuit of justice, liberation, and true democracy. But while Juneteenth marks freedom delayed, it also reminds us: the struggle for equality is not over.

    At Move to Amend, we believe Juneteenth is not just a day of remembrance—it is a call to action.

    Juneteenth symbolizes the long fight to end systemic oppression. At its heart, it echoes the very mission of our movement: to dismantle the structures that continue to uphold inequality, to ensure that democracy serves all people—not just the wealthy and powerful.

    As you may know, Move to Amend is a national grassroots coalition committed to passing the We the People Amendment (H.J.Res.54) — an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would:

    - End corporate personhood, because corporations are not people and should not enjoy the same rights as living, breathing human beings.

    - Make clear that money is not speech, so political power can no longer be bought and sold to the highest bidder.

    Here’s why this is so relevant today:

    The 14th Amendment, ratified in 1868, granted citizenship to all persons born or naturalized in the United States, including formerly enslaved people, and prohibited states from infringing upon the fundamental rights of citizens. The Amendment has been hijacked, exploited by corporations to gain rights and power never intended for them. Supreme Court cases in the 1880's set the stage for this betrayal of justice—using the language of equality to serve corporate interests.

    This perversion of justice is a direct affront to the spirit of Juneteenth.

    We believe reclaiming the 14th Amendment is essential to fulfilling its original promise—and to confronting the economic and political systems that continue to harm Black, Brown, Indigenous, and working-class communities. Corporate influence fuels policies that perpetuate poverty, environmental destruction, mass incarceration, and voter suppression.

  • No Kings, No Corporations: Rejecting Authoritarian and Corporate Rule

    As we protest authoritarianism this Saturday—and legitimately condemn the many anti-democratic and unjust actions of Trump—let us also remember the tyranny of our corporate overlords who have been—perhaps more quietly but not less aggressively—eroding our democracy.

    The “No Kings Day” mass rallies and marches this Saturday across the country will be, hopefully, a political and cultural affirmation of the democratic vision that we should be a self-governing people, a vision that has never been fully realized. The events must not only reject the reemergence and expansion of authoritarianism of Trump from his previous administration. They should also acknowledge the much longer tyranny and authoritarianism of corporate rule.

    Speeches, signs, chants, and petitions will undoubtedly address the numerous authoritarian actions by the Trump administration since the election. These include pardons and immunities for loyalists, the use of federal agencies against political opponents, use of disinformation and threats against elected officials, mass deportations and family separation, executive orders that trump local and state governments, government loyalty purges, crackdown on the media and dissent, and militarized response to protests – such as the overreacting deployment of the Marines in response to the largely peaceful protests against ICE immigration raids in Los Angeles.

    As we protest authoritarianism this Saturday—and legitimately condemn the many anti-democratic and unjust actions of Trump—let us also remember that tyranny has many symbols. One is a red hat. The other is a corporate logo.

    The No Kings Day actions are just the latest and important public resistance to Trump’s tyrannical actions that have included other nationwide demonstrations and civil disobedience, legal challenges, whistleblowers and leaks, mutual aid, sanctuary networks, state and local government pushback, worker and union actions, and campus resistance.

    Yet the reality is that Trump and his Project 2025 playbook represent one form of authoritarianism that, while distinct in some respects, intersects with another deeply entrenched form: corporate domination.

  • All out on No Kings Day: Rally, March & Petition to End Authoritarian AND Corporate Rule

    Move to Amend is a partner of the June 14 NO KINGS National Day of Action and mass mobilization - organized in response to the increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption of the Trump regime. 

    We’ve watched as they’ve cracked down on free speech (of people, not corporations), detained people for their political positions, threatened to deport American citizens, and defied the courts. They’ve done this all while continuing to serve and enrich their billionaire and corporate allies. They think they rule—but we are more powerful than even their worst aspirations.

    While flagrant and unapologetic authoritarian rule efforts are recent, corporate rule has gone on for more a century. Shielded by Supreme Court-anointed constitutional rights, corporations have crushed our efforts to provide quality health care, shelter, food, education and employment to all, a livable natural world and a real democracy.

    That's why Move to Amend will call on June 14 to 
    End Authoritarian AND Corporate Rule

    We are asking our supporters to join thousands of people for No Kings Day in their local communities. This is an important moment to raise up the We the People Amendment.

    Here's how you can help:
