Students from several Los Angeles Unified School District schools across the city gathered in downtown LA on Wednesday to protest against Immigration and Customs Enforcement and ongoing federal operations taking place in the country.
SkyCal flew over the protest where hundreds of students could be seen holding signs and flags as they marched towards City Hall.
Several groups posted on social media calling for the school walkouts to oppose the Trump administration's increased immigration crackdown. The posts encouraged students to prioritize safety and to stand up for their communities.
CBS LA has reached out to the LAUSD for a comment and is waiting for a response.
Since starting his second term, President Trump has said he will increase mass deportations and he has also signed several executive orders to change the current immigration policy.
In recent weeks, tensions have risen following the fatal shootings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis by federal agents.
