Two raised protest placards read "LET US LIVE" surropunded by hearts, and "Saftey should not stop at cisgender", they are next to a statue of a woman holding a fabric sign saying "Courage calls to courage everywhere"

Outside the houses of parliament a flag reads "Over my dead body"
Below it are other protest signs - several reading "Trans rights now" and one "Harry Potter and the Blood of Trans Youth" with red handprints.

I was placard-focused at the #TransRights #protest today to avoid sharing faces - fortunately there was a strong and sassy sign game! And #Blåhaj too!
Thank you to the friends I was with, really good to be at this protest, and with great people

I've been seeing a lot of creative #ProtestSigns. Many of which made me nod, some of which made me smile, and a few of which made me laugh out loud. This one made me tear up.

I was still a girl when the first #StarWars movie came out. The first Halloween costume I made for myself was a Princess Leia outfit. That character was one of the first strong female heroes I'd encountered.

"A woman's place is in the resistance." Indeed it is.

A protestor holds a sign with text on the left that reads, "A woman's place is in the resistance." And a picture of Princess Leia on the right.

Lots of great photos! Too many to share all or even most of them. There's no paywall, so click on the link to see.

Here's a few of my favorites.

"And then today, across the country, millions of people turned out for #HandsOff protests...

In #SanFrancisco, where Buddy and I joined a protest, what jumped out to me was how many of the signs in the crowd called for the protection of the U.S. Constitution, our institutions, and the government agencies that keep us safe."

"All across the country, people got out and protested today. Big rallies and small ones. In some places, people lined city streets and waved at passing cars. Elsewhere, people gathered in parks or in front of state office buildings.

Birmingham, Alabama, was one of those cities...

Some of my favorite signs"
