Share photos and videos with TBS or let us know, in 200 words or less, why you went out to make your voice heard. If you share photos, videos or experiences, [let us know up front](https://www.berkeleyscanner.com/tips/) if you prefer to be named or remain anonymous. ### 'No Kings' protest: Berkeley's official statement On Friday, Berkeley [Mayor Adena Ishii](https://www.berkeleyscanner.com/topic/adena-ishii/), city manager [Paul Buddenhagen](https://www.berkeleyscanner.com/2024/05/24/berkeley-city-council/paul-buddenhagen-berkeley-city-manager/) and Police Chief [Jennifer Louis](https://www.berkeleyscanner.com/topic/jen-louis/) issued a joint statement. It appears below in full. > This Saturday, October 18, 2025, is a national day of protest in response to President Trump and his administration. Organized demonstrations are planned throughout the Bay Area, including here in Berkeley. > Berkeley remains steadfast in its commitment to protecting the rights of individuals to peacefully protest. We take great pride in our legacy of raising our voices together in peace and fully support the public’s right to lawfully assemble and express their views. > We recognize that many in our community are feeling anger, disappointment, and fear in response to the current state of our nation. Those emotions will be powerfully present on Saturday. As you come together to express these sentiments, we urge everyone to remain peaceful. Violence or other criminal activity can escalate tensions and endanger the safety of others, which would require law enforcement intervention. > While we hope for a peaceful day of protest, we are aware of the uncertainty surrounding how the federal government may respond. Recent events, including the use of the military in Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., and Chicago, as well as the current threats to San Francisco and Oakland, underscore the importance of being prepared and informed. Additionally, there may be individuals who co-opt a peaceful protest for their own agenda; stay aware and clear of those engaged in dangerous and criminal behavior. > Our intent is not to create fear, but to empower our community with helpful information and resources.
