Protests against President Trump’s anti-immigrant executive actions — particularly the one on Friday that banned refugees and citizens of seven majority-Muslim countries from entering the U.S. — expanded and spread on Sunday. These followed numerous large protests at American airports on Saturday, which immediately came together after news spread that U.S. visa-holding immigrants were being detained and deported by border authorities at various ports of entry after being caught in limbo by Trump’s order. On Sunday, crowds large and small amassed in numerous cities and airports throughout the U.S., continuing a nationwide backlash to Trump’s immigration policies. Below are some images and videos of those crowds as shared on social media.

Thousands took to Manhattan’s Battery Park to protest Trump’s executive order. Public speakers included Mayor de Blasio, Democratic senators Chuck Schumer, Kirsten Gillibrand, and Cory Booker, as well as Democratic representatives Carolyn Maloney and Nydia Velázquez:

A huge protest also took place in Boston’s Copley Square, where speakers included Democratic senators Elizabeth Warren and Ed Markey, as well as Boston mayor Marty Walsh:
