New Yorkers protest Trump immigration order

(30 Jan 2017) Protesters gathered in downtown New York on Sunday evening to demand an end to US President Donald Trump's ban on travellers from seven Muslim nations. A march through Lower Manhattan converged on Foley Square near several government agency buildings, which followed an earlier protest in Battery Park near the ferries that carry tourists to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, where 12 million people entered the United States in the 20th century. The protests followed a night of big demonstrations at New York's Kennedy Airport, where thousands of people spontaneously gathered to demand the release of detained travellers, in addition to other locations around the country.
