"I’m here today to try to do something for these babies that are being torn from their mothers," said Sally Carlson. "This is bringing back echoes of the Japanese internment, the genocide of the Native Americans, slavery and Nazism. We’re having concentration camps here in America again and I won’t stand for it."
Chants of "Reunite them now! Reunite them when? Reunite them now!" could be heard as the procession made its way down Broadway on Capitol Hill toward St. James Cathedral.
"These people are not killers or thieves, you know, they should be treated with some kind of humanity," said Deborah Robinson.
Some marched with young girl's dresses or shoes. Marla Katz carried a sign that read, "Where are the children," with a small blue and yellow dress pinned to it.
Following the two-mile procession, crowds filed into St. James Cathedral for a service and candle lighting.
