Kenny Foreman reports for WLIW-FM at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. It's day two of the convention and delegates are on the move, energized by last night's many speakers with keynote speaker President Joe Biden. During his speech, Biden spoke about his time as President and the honor it is for him to serve as the nation's commander in chief. On multiple occasions, the United Center crowd erupted into standing ovations, chanting "We love Biden! We love Biden!"

Because of you, we've been one of the most extraordinary 4 years of progress ever. Period.

Biden spoke firmly about his trust and support for his Vice President, Kamala Harris. The theme for tonight is a bold vision for America's future. Speakers include Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and perhaps the biggest names, Former First lady Michelle Obama and former President Barack Obama.

Camryn Bowden reports for WLIW-FM from the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. The Coalition to March on the DNC again brought thousands of activists to Chicago yesterday. The protests, organized by a group of over 200 organizations, remained relatively peaceful. But according to police, did break down some security fencing surrounding the United Center, resulting in the arrests of at least four people. Here's one protester, Khadija meter, from Washington, DC:

I think it's really important for us to be very aware of that and to recognize that we have a special responsibility here and that responsibility is to disrupt in any way possible to bring an end to this genocide and to bring an end to US imperialism.

But the March was not the only act of civil disobedience, as a group of Jewish organizers inside the United Center unfurled a banner with the phrase "stop arming Israel". They were quickly blocked by others holding "we heart Joe Biden" signs.
