Rain and highs in the 50s, in January? There's a lot going on this month that we never thought we'd see, but it's mid-January, and here we are.

Chicago’s classically-unpredictable winter weather is promising us sun and a high of 56 degrees on Saturday, according to reports—the perfect weather for wearing sweaters, feeling the sun on your face, and starting a revolution. Lucky for us, there’s already one massive protest brewing. So if you’re still on the fence about joining as many as 50,000 people in marching for civil rights on Saturday morning, here’s one fewer excuse you have to stay inside.

Marchers are meeting after 8:30 a.m. at the Petrillo Bandshell, where speakers and performers will take a stage ahead of the march itself, which begins at 11:30 a.m. and will trace a path through Grant Park.
