Across the country, protesters rallied on Thursday under a shared refrain inspired by former congressman and civil rights icon John Lewis: “Good trouble lives on.” Thousands of people took to the streets in what organizers cast as a national day of action — a sweeping protest of the Trump administration’s cuts to safety net programs and efforts to roll back protections for immigrants and marginalized communities.

Demonstrators have taken to the streets across multiple states on Thursday to protest President Donald Trump’s Administration in a day of action honoring the late civil rights icon Rep. John Lewis, with more events planned across the country in the evening.

The rally, held by Williamsburg JCC Indivisible and the League of Women Voters of the Williamsburg Area, was one of similar “Good Trouble Lives On” demonstrations held across the country in protest of the Trump administration. The demonstrations, named after one of Lewis’ signature quotes, coincided with the fifth anniversary of Lewis’ death.
