Photos show thousands of people in the streets around Westlake as the protests continue about the ban on immigrants from seven Muslim countries. There was so much confusion around the order that anyone who was from one of those countries and was not a citizen was being detained.

That included people with green cards and resident status. The ban was enacted so swiftly that many were caught in transit.

Protests were held at SeaTac airport on Saturday night (see previous article) and a rally and march at Westlake Center and surrounding streets on Sunday night.


Corrected 1-30-2017 for number of countries and days of the protests.
