Protests per month. Shaded: the months compared.

Trends use complete months only, through May 2026: the research record (Crowd Counting Consortium) is published a few months late, so counting the newest months would always look like a drop. Each issue is compared with the same months a year earlier, which keeps seasonal swings from looking like trends. Each protest counts once, under its main issue. About the data
