Boston filled with crowds Saturday for the annual Pride parade. But this year's event felt different to some, with a "No Kings" protest against President Trump folded in.
The “No Kings” rallies were organized in nearly 2,000 locations nationwide, including cities, towns, and community spaces.
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu has taken a similarly combative stance in response to recent ICE operations in Boston and beyond. The first-term Democrat struck a particularly tender nerve when she described ICE agents as “secret police,” pointing to the video where Tufts student Rumeysa Ozturk was seized by agents wearing masks.
