YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - Locals across Yuma County participated in a "No Kings" Protest Saturday morning.

The protest took place from 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. on the corners of S. Fourth Avenue and W. 16th Street.

This was a peaceful movement that united people across the country to fight against dictatorship.

Two protesters shared why they participated in Saturday's protests.

"I had to come because with my silence, that makes it okay...and it's not okay. I don't like the term that has happened to my government," said Sandra Stubbs, a protester.

"For the first time in my life, I'm worried about my country," said Jimmie Robinson, another protester.

According to Yuma County Indivisible, about 500 people participated in Saturday's protest.
