![Ray Lescher, 90, a retired Catholic priest now of Hopkins Park, walks along the sidewalk of demonstrators during the No Kings rally at the Kankakee County Courthouse on March 28, 2026. Lescher, a longtime Kankakee-based priest, participated in protests at the same location 65 years ago during the civil rights movement.
“It’s the same cause today- justice and human rights,” he said. “[We’re] standing up for justice from a different angle.”](https://www.shawlocal.com/resizer/fsRBfwy-dHG8MrRnOiQ7A77MEM4=/800x0/filters:format(jpg):quality(70)/cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/shawmedia/JUBH3CVPG5HCJJFCALS5C7XB6Y.jpg)
