President Donald Trump s executive order prohibiting travelers into America from seven Muslim-majority nations triggered an astounding, spontaneous national protest from sea to sea.

The executive order, which also temporarily barred all refugees from entering the U.S. and indefinitely banned Syrian refugees, led thousands of demonstrators to converge on airports where travelers were being detained. Protesters popped up in cities from coast to coast, from New York and Miami, to Minneapolis and Dallas, to Seattle and San Diego.

Let them in! protesters chanted. No hate, no fear, everyone is welcome here! was another common slogan. They waved signs condemning fascists and demanding no ban, no wall. Demonstrators also sang This Land Is Your Land.

Trumps edict had an unexpected positive outcome: not only a Brooklyn judges temporary stay blocking the presidents order, but an America rising up together, captured in these photos and videos.
