Rallies in solidarity with Ukraine? [1]

Ukraine has held a warm place in my heart ever since I spent a month there on a work project in the mid-1990s. Watching the nation struggle to hold off the Russian bullies and oligarchs—even then—was an education in what the hangover of Soviet power, greed, and corruption was all about.
I was busy earlier today and did not see the insulting and disgraceful performance, but I’ve been reading the accounts and comments. I feel the need to do more. And we all know there are tens of millions of us in the U.S. ready to let our views be known. Including MANY who are not Democrats, progressives, etc. So I am posting this to see if anyone is hearing about public responses. Do you know of any rallies being planned? I am in rural southern Wisconsin, and wonder if anything is being organized in Madison.
I am honestly a little burned out on rallies that have no tangible outcomes. But in this case I see important good coming from this. It will draw a clear, bold line between the Republican neo-fascist Putinists and everyone else. It will demonstrate to the Ukrainians and Europeans that we stand with them. And maybe most important, it will show everyday Russians how to push back against an evil regime.
So… any news to report?
