Big skip there, probably should be every weekend
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.
EDIT: Just to add, because my tone in that last sentence sounded a bit dismissive - if you did attend smaller, more disruptive protests every weekend, I would be applauding you. I agree we need more frequent action, but there are many different "lanes" of activism. There are other lanes where smaller groups are doing bigger things, at greater risk to their personal safety. Anyone occupying any lane to protest this administration is my ally.
Also, organising anything this large is incredibly draining. Organisers need to look after their mental health.
There will be other things between im sure but I get needing lead time and more planning to try and get out the super big ones.
