Dirge for Democracy: Bloomington Protesters Stage Mock Funeral

A mock funeral procession was held at Bloomington's Switchyard Park on Saturday to protest the Trump administration.

The demonstration featured a casket labeled "Rule of Law", mourners in black, and a brass band playing "March and Canzona (Funeral Music for Queen Mary)".

A group of local residents gathered near the splash pad at Switchyard Park for the protest, organized by the 50501 movement, a national network representing "50 protests, 50 states, 1 movement".

The protest targeted the Winter Farmers Market, which was holding its inaugural market day of the season.
