Across the US, demonstrations against President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration are under way.

Primarily led by Palestinians, labour organisers and Hispanic activists, demonstrators are filling the streets for the next week to advocate for the rights of immigrants, Muslims, Palestinians, women and the LGBTQ+ community.

In San Francisco on Sunday afternoon, as the ceasefire in Gaza was being initiated, thousands gathered near city hall, many carrying Palestinian flags and wearing keffiyehs, while some carried Mexican flags and held signs in Spanish. Community leaders took turns taking the stage as they spoke about the interconnected struggles and then led a march downtown.
