Early Wednesday morning, a 3,000-pound ice sculpture spelling the word "DEMOCRACY" was transported from a New York studio to the National Mall by artists Nora Ligorano and Marshall Reese, known as LigoranoReese. To deliver the metaphor, the artists had partnered with Up In Arms, an organization started by Ben & Jerry's co-founder Ben Cohen, who is known as much for his activism as his ice cream.

More than 500 people are expected to hold up placards supporting the proscribed group in Parliament Square, as the ban on Palestine Action remains in effect.

Demonstrators gathered in Chicago outside immigration court, demanding an end to enforcement sweeps and opposing military presence in California, chanting 'No more deportations!'.
