Chants, signs and speakers addressed the multitude of issues facing workers and oppressed people, from the latest attacks on immigrants, people of color and trans people to gentrification and the ongoing U.S.-armed Israeli genocide in Palestine. About two dozen progressive, campus and community organizations came together to build the demonstration.
