Hundreds of protesters on Sunday marched down Michigan Avenue, urging Vice President Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party to end the conflict in the Gaza Strip, as well as improve access to reproductive health care, Anadolu reports.

The first major protest, one of several planned, began Sunday evening near Trump Tower at the intersection of Michigan Avenue and Wacker Drive, WTTW broadcaster reported.

It began with a rally before moving south along Michigan Avenue and marching to Grant Park, the historic site of the 1968 DNC clashes between Chicago Police and anti-Vietnam War protesters.
