Sonora, CA — Protests took place across the country today, including at Sonora’s Courthouse Park, in response to the potential overturning of Roe v. Wade by the US Supreme Court.

The local protest, entitled the “Mother Lode Women’s March for Reproductive Justice,” started at one o’clock and many people were downtown holding signs reading phrases like “My body, my choice,” and “We won’t go back.”
