An Allegheny Independent Media Exclusive: Lyrical Capo covered the No Kings rally in Johnstown, PA. The rally was planned at the last minute and more than 100 people attended. They didn’t have a permit to gather in Central Park so they marched around it. WJAC covered the protest in State College.
On Saturday, June 14, 2025, the city of Johnstown, PA (15901) witnessed a powerful display of resistance as community members gathered for the No Kings rally at Central Park from 12-4 pm. Despite the absence of major press coverage, the determination and passion of the attendees remained unwavering. Chanting and circling the park, the crowd expressed their frustration and disappointment with the current state of affairs.
Tereah, founder of Lyrical Capo, a personal brand that supports independent media, showed solidarity with the local community by attending the rally. This event was part of a nationwide movement against authoritarianism and the erosion of democracy.
