Affiliate Marketing Secrets

When India was occupied by the British, Ghandi declared one day to be a day of prayer where no single Indian went to work, or did anything but prayed. I am wondering if any Imams or Muslims in America, or anywhere else for that matter, have considered something like this, to show the importance of Muslims and how it would impact everyone if they closed up their shops, did not go to school, nor went to work for one day? Thanks for reading, sorry it’s so long!
Btw, I am a non-Muslim American, and not affiliated with any religion.
Please, no hateful answers.
Peace and salaam.
