The protests were slated to take place on Thursday, July 17, the fifth anniversary of the death of civil rights champion and Congressman John Lewis, who popularized the concept of "Good Trouble," referring to non-violent civil disobedience.

Lewis' influence and philosophy to engage in "good trouble, necessary trouble," is the backbone of the latest round of nationwide protests against President Donald Trump's administration, called Good Trouble Lives On.

Lewis' legacy as a civil rights activist and lawmaker spans decades and numerous administrations. What to know as planned protests invoke his legacy.

"We are facing the most brazen rollback of civil rights in generations..." say the organizers of the 'Good Trouble' protests, which are planned for Thursday.

Good Trouble Lives On" protests will take place in Chicago today, rallying against President Donald Trump and his policies.

The 'Good Trouble' protests are part of a nationwide mobilization to honor the late Congressman John Lewis and to protest the Trump administration.
