On Saturday, thousands of people gathered for marches across the United States to protest the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy, including its recent calls to indefinitely detain families apprehended while trying to cross the border and separating children from their parents. (The President signed an executive order last week to the latter practice.) Collectively called “Families Belong Together,” there were an estimated 750 events happening in all 50 states, according to USA Today.

According to NBC News, an estimated 30,000 protesters walked across the Brooklyn Bridge in New York; about 100 were posted up outside the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey (where the President is currently). Meanwhile, in Washington, D.C., approximately 30,000 gathered to march to the White House, per Al Jazeera. John Legend and Chrissy Teigen spoke to the crowd in L.A. And at every rally, in every city, marchers brought signs that iterated their demands for reform in poignant ways—through slogans, illustrations, and more.
