Dozens gathered at First Ward Park Tuesday evening for a Free America Walkout, part of a nationwide series of protests marking the first anniversary of President Trump’s second term. According to WCCB, organizers and participants decried economic uncertainty, immigration policies and recent actions by federal agents, including protests linked to a fatal ICE shooting in Minneapolis that has sparked national controversy and outrage.
