Thousands of people gathered near the Forward Statue at the Wisconsin State Capitol as part of the “Hands Off!” nationwide demonstration to protect human rights, democracy, and equality. Protesters voiced opposition to the Trump Administration’s actions on government cuts, human rights, and equality, as well as Elon Musk’s involvement in the U.S. government. People of all ages brought signs and flags to advocate against changes in the government. Brenda and Genevieve Engelhardt joined the protest to express frustration over the current administration, citing concerns over protecting people and marginalized groups. Genevieve, a transgender woman, highlighted the challenges faced by the transgender community due to new policies. Despite criticism from the Republican Party of Wisconsin, protesters believe that these demonstrations will make a positive impact on society and spread awareness on important issues. Attendees like Jean Pruscha and Charles Rendleman emphasized the importance of grassroots movements to create change. Brenda Engelhardt sees the rally as a starting point for further activism in communities and among activist groups.
