Organizers call the mass protests nationwide a "day of defiance" in opposition to Trump administration policies.
The No Kings Day of Action was a series of protests in all 50 states organized by the social movement organization Indivisible.
Protesters gathered at Lincoln Park, voicing their opposition to President Donald Trump's administration's policies and decisions since his return to office this year. "We are concerned about the loss of democracy, in the Constitution, in the country," local Curtis Rich said.
Protesters marched through downtown, and speeches were made along the waterfront.
Organizers are accusing the president of putting on the parade as a show of dominance. The protests were peaceful, but came against the backdrop of assassinations in Minnesota.
Opponents of President Donald Trump’s administration are set to rally in nearly 2,000 cities and towns this weekend.
