In a significant protest in Chicago, thousands took to the streets to denounce recent immigration raids, chanting anti-Trump slogans and waving Mexican flags. Protesters voiced their fears regarding ICE actions in major cities, especially in immigrant-rich areas of Chicago like Pilsen. Joining forces with supporters of Palestine, they chanted for an end to border walls. Amid police monitoring, the large turnout reflected rising tensions in Latino communities, where residents fear detainment by federal agents. This demonstration served as a critical expression of solidarity against perceived injustices faced by marginalized populations in the U.S.
Marchers highlighted their concerns as they denounced ICE and the Trump administration, with slogans emphasizing the dangers of immigration policies affecting their communities.
Cheryl Thomas, a participant, expressed a lack of certainty about the impact of their protest, stating that failing to act wouldn't effect change.
