Protesters in trees at Minnesota State Capitol

Protesters in trees at State Capitol
An estimated 25,000 individuals assembled at the Minnesota State Capitol in St. Paul for a 'Hands Off!' protest, part of a nationwide series of rallies. The Minnesota State Capitol, completed in 1905 and designed by Cass Gilbert, frequently serves as a public forum for civic engagement and dissent. During this protest, participants held signs addressing various political and social issues, including immigration and calls to 'Resist.' Several individuals climbed trees on the Capitol grounds, seeking a better view of the proceedings. Such gatherings underscore the building's role as a significant site for public expression and political discourse in Minnesota.
