In a nationwide movement, approximately 5,000 demonstrators gathered at Los Angeles International Airport on Sunday afternoon to condemn Trump’s travel restrictions, including the president’s efforts to build the Mexico border wall.

People’s chants of “Let them in!, “Refugees welcome!” and Love, not hate makes America great!” echoed through the Tom Bradley International Terminal. Protestors poured onto the sidewalks causing the rerouting of all traffic to the departure levels.

At one point, dozens of protesters sat down and blocked the main thruway World Way, refusing to leave until all detainees were released. Nancy Suey Castles, an airport spokesperson, said in a statement at around 10 p.m: “Demonstrators may block one level at a time for 15 minutes allowing the opposite level to be fully open for 30 minutes and allow traffic to flow.”

Protests simultaneously took place in airports across the country Sunday including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Washington, Dallas, New York’s JFK, Raleigh, Houston, Seattle, Portland, Atlanta and more.

Matthew Davidson, a philosophy professor at the University of California at San Bernardino, attended rally. “What Trump is doing is profoundly un-American, but I’m glad to see the multi-cultural side of Los Angeles stand up against his efforts,” Davidson said.

Detlef Issel, 54, is originally from Cologne, Germany, but moved to the United States 12 years ago. “Like the flag says, ‘Learn from our history.’ Trump has similar characteristics to Adolf Hitler. I’m shocked that this is who Americans picked to lead this country.”
