Filipino workers joined protests in Los Angeles against Trump deportations as part of the nationwide 'No Kings' rally.

Footage shows members of the Pilipino Workers Center (PWC) gathered in the streets, holding banners opposing US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Similar demonstrations were also held in Torrance and Anaheim.

The PWC said: 'We stand firmly in solidarity with migrants, their families, and the peaceful protesters who are facing abuse from ICE and federal armed forces.

'In these trying times, we draw strength from one another. When our rights are trampled, we do not respond with violence—instead, we respond with compassion, understanding, resilience, and unity.'

The demonstrations were held in response to a military parade hosted by Trump in Washington, D.C. They came after several days of massive protests in Los Angeles and other cities over an ongoing crime crackdown.

The 250th-anniversary parade of the US Army also coincided with President Trump's 79th birthday.
