The protests took place on the fifth anniversary of the death of civil rights icon John Lewis. The former congressman coined the phrase "good trouble" to describe peaceful protests challenging civil rights infringements, and organizers say the upcoming demonstrations will carry on this legacy.

The "Good Trouble Lives On" rallies marked the nation's fourth wide-scale protest organized by the same coalition as June's "No Kings" protests.

The 'Good Trouble' protests are part of a nationwide mobilization to honor the late Congressman John Lewis and to protest the Trump administration.
