Labor unions and community activists gathered for mass protests on Labor Day, the latest in a series of demonstrations against the Trump administration. 

On a holiday set aside to recognize and honor the contributions of American workers, hundreds and sometimes thousands turned out in rallies and political protests across the country on Sept. 1, aiming to demonstrate the power of the working class.

Large crowds turned out at rallies and marches in major cities including Boston, Chicago, Detroit, New York and others. More than a thousand "Workers Over Billionaires” themed events were planned nationwide.

The protests drew mostly modest crowds in smaller cities around the country, from Scottsdale, Arizona, to Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Several of the involved organizations also helped set up the other large-scale protests of the summer, including No Kings Day in June and Good Trouble Lives On in July.
