Dozens braved the cold wind on Sunday afternoon in downtown San Antonio to attend the “We Fight Back” rally, aimed to garner support from the public to oppose the incoming Trump administration’s policies.
The rally was sponsored by the Party for Socialism and Liberation. Organizer Jose Montoya said his group is opposed to many of President-elect Donald Trump’s policies, including those on immigration.
“We want to let Trump know that San Antonio is not going to let our friends, family and neighbors get deported, and, past that, we’re not going to let them be scapegoated for every social ill that the country has," he said.

Hannah Chambers came to show her support. “I think it’s an unfortunate reality in this country that the white people have the most power so I'm just trying to lend my voice to help others,” she said.
Chambers added that she’s concerned about the inequality in government. “We need to go back to 'we the people,' not the people in power, but actual people,” she said.

The event also highlighted participants' concerns about other issues, such as workers' rights, education and equality for women and the LGBTQ+ community.
The rally was one of some 85 similar events held across the country ahead of Inauguration Day.
