Patrick McCracken, second from left, holds his fist up in the air with other people to protest the recent ICE involved shootings in Minnesota and Portland while standing on the corners of Union and W. Second streets in The Dalles on Jan. 9. The protest was organized by Protect Oregon’s Progress to shine light on the “recent atrocities” going on across the nation under the current administration, they said. Organizers estimated around 100 people turned out for the protest. More photos online at columbiagorgenews.com.   Helen H. Richardson photo / special to Columbia Gorge News
