Hands Off Protest in New York City

On April 5, tens of thousands of people, possibly 100,000, marched in New York City as part of nationwide protests against the administration. The estimate is that people joined 1600 protests across the country. In New York, the protesters filled 20 blocks of Fifth Avenue for over 3 hours. Well organized, peaceful, and orderly, the protest included families with children, people in wheelchairs, the elderly, and the young. A frequent chant was “This is What Democracy Looks Like.”

Elon Musk and DOGE were frequent objects of the marchers’ criticism
