On Friday May 1st, or May Day, there was a big anti war protest that spanned from the Nicollet Island side of the Hennepin Bridge all the way into downtown Minneapolis. Up to ten thousand people participated in this protest showing a lot of support to stop the wars that are going on but also protesting against going to war with Iran.

Other than the protest being  related towards anti war, it also was focused on the No Kings or No Kings Day and anti ICE awareness.

I took this photo from the Minneapolis side of the river parkway. I was there with some friends and though we didn’t make signs or anything, we did participate by being there.
