Around 1,500 people took to the streets of Pittsburgh Tuesday to demonstrate peacefully in song against a visit by US President Donald Trump and to mourn 11 Jewish worshipers killed in a synagogue.

The crowd of all ages and faiths, including many young families, children and the elderly, marched for six blocks holding signs that read "President Hate, Leave Our State!" and "Trump's Lies Kill."
The Steel City is "stronger than the hate," she said. "It's a very diverse city, it's a small city but people are close, people are united and we're not going to let this happen here and hurt us."
