Hands Off 2025 protest in Scoville Park against the Trump Administration on Saturday April 5, 2025 | Todd Bannor
Hands Off! More than a thousand participants from the Oak Park, River Forest and Forest Park area gathered in Scoville Park, Lake Street and Oak Park Avenue, to protest cuts and firings during the first three months of the Trump administration. The protesters marched down Lake Street to Harlem Avenue, crossed over to the other side of the street and marched back to Oak Park Avenue, serenaded by cars honking in solidarity the entire way. Signs with pointed messages for Trump and Elon Musk were plentiful.
