Stephanie Santana, left on the bench, holds a sign to hand out free water and snacks to protestors with her niece, Liliana Velazquez, 3. “We still want to be a part of the cause even though I’m immunocompromised and I have a three-year-old,” said Liliana’s mom, Dulce. “I was still uncomfortable with a big group setting because of covid. But this way, we can still give back, help and be active somehow.” Yehyun Kim / CT Mirror
