- Events include marches from Dolores Park to City Hall in San Francisco, separate Bay Area protests at multiple locations, and a rally in Palo Alto featuring activist Joan Baez committed to nonviolence since high school.
- San Francisco Sheriff Paul Miyamoto confirmed that his office is prepared to intervene against small groups breaking away from peaceful protests who engage in damaging or harmful activities, while prosecutors plan to pursue charges against those arrested.
- The protests reflect connected struggles against authoritarianism and immigration enforcement, suggesting continued large-scale civic engagement and heightened law enforcement responses in coming days.
