On Friday night, about 100 demonstrators marched in the Cooper-Young neighborhood. And on Saturday afternoon, hundreds marched in a "Walk for Solidarity" down Main Street from Court Square to the Memphis Civil Rights Museum.
Organizer Evan Mann said the diverse gathering represented minority groups worried about the mainstreaming of hate speech. "This is not about a candidate," Mann said. "This is about the rhetoric -- the active rhetoric -- that is scaring people."
