No Kings, No Thrones, No Crowns
17 Oct 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
On October 17th, we are coming together to celebrate our right and responsibility to vote! Join us at the Delaware County Courthouse.
Unlike previous No Kings actions, No Kings, No Thrones, No Crowns is partly a rally and partly a citizens action. It's a day of nonpartisan voter participation: we are bringing our community together to make sure everyone has a plan to vote. Voters with Mail-in Ballots to return are invited to bring them to the Government Center behind the Courthouse and place them in the dropbox there. This is our opportunity to stand and vote together as a community!
We will have music, speakers, calls to action, snacks and more.
Don’t miss this opportunity to turn people power into voter power. This will be our last opportunity to turn out an masse before the General Election.

Join the Swarthmore Democratic Committee for the first gathering of the Democracy Book Club as we discuss Timothy Snyder’s On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century.

Come together with fellow readers for a thoughtful conversation about democracy, civic responsibility, and what history can teach us about the present.
