FOX 32 Chicago on MSNNo Kings protest in Chicago: Rally against Trump to hit downtown tomorrowA large-scale protest denouncing President Donald Trump will take place in downtown Chicago Saturday as part of a national day of action called "No Kings."
Hundreds gather at the Statehouse to take part in the "No Kings" rally -- one of many happening across the U.S. on Saturday.
Across the country, relatively few disruptions were reported during protests and marches where the mood ranged from joyful to defiant.
Demonstrators came out in cities across the U.S. to protest President Trump. Organizers of Saturday's "No Kings" demonstrations said millions marched in hundreds of events.
“People are mad, and people are ready to speak out,” said Sharon Riggle, who leads Batavia-Aurora Area Indivisible, one of the groups that helped organize the protest in Geneva on Saturday. “This is bigger than anything we’ve had before.”
Protests and the interactions between protesters and government authorities have a long history in the United States. From the Boston Tea Party to the Civil Rights movement, LBGTQ Stonewall uprising, the Tea Party movement and Black Lives Matter, public protest has been a crucial aspect of efforts to advance or protect the rights of citizens.
