Thank the Protesters for Defending Greenland’s Freedom

Thousands of people in Denmark and Greenland have taken a powerful stand for democracy — and they deserve our thanks. 
By marching to the U.S. Embassy in Copenhagen and rallying in cities across the country, protesters sent a clear, united message in response to Donald Trump’s takeover talk: Greenland is not for sale.

With chants like “Hands off Greenland” and “Greenland is not for sale,” demonstrators defended a basic democratic principle: the future of Greenland must be decided by the people who live there — not by threats, pressure, or political ambition from abroad.

At a moment when fear and uncertainty have weighed heavily on Greenland’s Inuit communities, this show of solidarity mattered. Danish and Greenlandic flags waved side by side, proving that when democracy is threatened, people can still come together with courage, care, and unity.

This is what civic strength looks like — peaceful protest, shared values, and refusing to stay silent in the face of intimidation. It’s a reminder that ordinary people can stand up for sovereignty, human dignity, and international peace.

Add your name to thank the protesters in Denmark and Greenland for defending self-determination, standing up to intimidation, and showing the world that democracy still belongs to the people.
