Protests against President Donald Trump and his administration are planned nationwide Saturday, but in Boston, organizers say the “No Kings” demonstration will look a little different, since the day of action coincides with the city’s Pride parade and festival.
The Boston protest was one of many across the country in support of David Huerta, president of the California SEIU, who was detained by federal officials in Los Angeles on Friday.
A rally will be held in Boston on Monday afternoon in response to ICE raids and protests in Los Angeles over the weekend.
The rallies were among hundreds of "No Kings" protests held throughout the United States, timed to coincide with a military parade celebrating the 250th birthday of the U.S. Army in Washington, D.C. Saturday was also Trump's 79th birthday.
Despite peaceful demonstrations reported in multiple cities, violence flared at some anti-Trump protests over the weekend.
