The Latino community from South Philadelphia, with the help from Juntos, and the Black and Brown workers collective organized the "Day without Immigrants March". Several different organizations from other parts of the city also converged at City Hall.

Thousands of people came with signs of support as well as showing their pride by waving their countries flags.  The main issues that brought everyone together were racial profiling, being targeted by either police and Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, as well as showing their disapproval to President Donald Trump and his actions against immigrants.
