| Why this matters: While many demonstrations against the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency have been peaceful, with marchers chanting slogans and carrying signs, others have led to clashes with police, hundreds of arrests, and the use of chemical irritants to disperse crowds.

Protest locations include Seattle, New York City, San Antonio, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Chicago, Denver, and Spokane. |
