Thousands of protesters participating in “Hands Off!” protests held in dozens of locations throughout Southern California on Saturday, April 5 carried home-made protest signs as they rallied.
Among the signs: “Eggs are too expensive. Eat the rich,” “It’s not left vs right. It’s the oligarchy vs all of us,” and “Trump is Tarifying.”
Here are some of the signs photographed by Southern California News Group photographers.
