the goal of these particular protests is high accessibility for maximum attendance. In that light, I think once a month is a smart timing. These protests attract a lot of elderly attendees that are mad at this admin but have never attended a protest before, people who would not attend something like the current LA ICE protests. Some of those people don’t necessarily have the energy or motivation to attend every weekend - once a month keeps the pressure up but also maximizes attendance. If you want to attend or start any smaller, more disruptive protests that are happening every weekend (i guarantee they are out there in your area), then go right ahead.

Also, organising anything this large is incredibly draining. Organisers need to look after their mental health.
