Activists that organized the protest advocated that those in attendance consider employing civil disobedience in response to Florida’s controversial new immigration detention centers.

More than 200 rallied in Fort Myers to honor John Lewis and protest what they see as threats to civil and human rights.

Demonstrators turned out at two locations in Pensacola for the “Good Trouble Lives On” nationwide protest on July 17.

The protests are part of a nationally organized event timed to mark the fifth anniversary of the death of Rep. John Lewis.
