According to the press, a statement issued by Greenpeace quoted one of the people who unfurled the banner, “I fear not only the policies of the incoming administration, but also the people emboldened by this election to commit acts of violence and hate. Now is the time to resist.” (Photo: Ken Cedeno/Greenpeace)

Evanston, Illinois, H.S. Walkout Against Trump-Pence
On Tuesday, hundreds of students from Evanston Township High School in Evanston Township, IL, walked out of class midday for a march and rally in the town square, chanting "Hey hey, ho ho, Donald Trump has got to go." The protest was started by one student putting out the call on facebook and bringing together about a dozen students as a core of organizers. At the rally, this student said "If you are not outraged, you are not paying attention. Protesting is only step one."
One student told the press that she cried for three days after the election. Another said “we are scared and angry.” Others recognized the danger under Trump-Pence to people who are different, which includes some of these youth that took part in the protest.

Chicago: Youth Take to Streets against Trump
On Monday a Refuse Fascism crew went back out to downtown Chicago to challenge people to stay in the streets, no business as usual. Some of the local press came: Fox TV, ABC and photographer from the Tribune. Some people who had marched at the Inauguration Day protests and the Women's March this weekend joined. A crew of Black students from a downtown alternative high school played a big role in carrying signs, banners, chanting loudly and challenging others to join. Several college students joined up, one from Brazil.
We marched down the main shopping street for 3 blocks before the cops came and threatened arrests. But people had their eyes on marching to Trump Tower. Cars honked for us and people from all walks of life gave support. A white grade schooler from Wisconsin visiting Chicago with his mother joined for a few blocks, and the Black youth gave a warm cheer. A man on his way to the commuter train changed his plans, ran with us, and videotaped the speak-out in front of Trump Tower.
High school students, a white college student from Florida, young Black student, and others spoke to why they were out in the streets against Trump. A Latino brother who said he had been in “the life” in his youth said that people killing each other is just getting played by the system and challenged the youth to set their sights on and be part of driving Trump out.

Hundreds of people, including RefuseFascism, confronted racist Trumpites outside the "DeploraBall" on Thursday night at the National Press Club in Washington, DC, where "alt-right" white supremacists were celebrating the fascist Trump-Pence regime. One racist whined about the protest against their ball: “This was our election. We emerged victorious.” The police moved against the protestors, using pepper spray on some people. The protestors stood their ground, making clear their determination to continue in the coming days and draw in many more people.
