Hundreds of people took to the streets of downtown Raleigh Wednesday afternoon to protest President Donald Trump's latest actions.
The marchers circled the block around the state Capitol building 鈥� filling the entire sidewalk around the building at one point 鈥� in what was likely the largest protest in the Triangle since Trump took office.
The protesters waved signs opposing a variety of actions by the new administration. Some opposed billionaire Elon Musk's so-called government efficiency group, while others were there to support immigrant rights or oppose the Project 2025 agenda.
鈥淣o Trump! No KKK! No fascist USA!鈥� the protesters chanted at one point, as one of them strummed a guitar.
The group later marched around the state legislature鈥檚 building. The event was part of a national movement called 50 states, 50 protests. Similar protests were held Wednesday in other state capitals, including Kentucky, Virginia and Florida, each drawing hundreds of protesters.
