Hundreds of protesters lined Grand River Avenue in downtown Howell during the nationwide “Good Trouble Lives On" protests July 17.

"It's vastly greater than what we had anticipated," an organizer said about an event to honor former Representative John Lewis.

The “Good Trouble Lives On” national day of action honors the late congressman and civil rights leader John Lewis. Protests are expected to be held along streets, at court houses and other public spaces. Organizers are calling for them to be peaceful.

Good Trouble Lives On protests will be held on July 17 in all major US cities, including Los Angeles, NYC, Detroit, Chicago, Portland, Philadelphia, and Seattle

Over 1,000 "Good Trouble" protests — similar to previous No Kings protests — are scheduled for July 17, with around 60 planned across Michigan, including near Ionia County.
