If you’re watching @maddow.msnbc.com’s A Block you understand that people who stand up for other people can change the course of those people’s lives & our history. We have the power to refuse Trump’s path forward. Protesting actually works. Let’s go.

The protesters are being called unspeakably violent by the Trump administration. I mostly saw clergy sit-ins and Tejano bands.
