The NAACP is urging people to wear white and hold anti-Trump signs on Monday for President Donald Trump's visit to Atlanta. Another group says demonstrators will "take a knee" before the big football game.

Atlanta police say they worked with the Secret Service on preparations for months before the College Football Championship game between Alabama and Georgia.

Another group, Refuse Fascism ATL, says that before kickoff, they'll "take a knee against Trump" outside CNN's world headquarters, in solidarity with athletes who have knelt during the national anthem to protest racial injustice.

The Rev. Jesse Jackson says the halftime song at the College Football Championship game should be "We Shall Overcome." That's because he says most of the players for both Georgia and Alabama are black, and they could not have played had the South remained segregated.

President Donald Trump won the states of Alabama and Georgia in the 2016 presidential election, but Jackson says his politics and policies are antithetical to Dr. Martin Luther King's dream for America.

Jackson says the big game's real meaning is that blacks can win on the playing field, but still face racial barriers after they take off their uniforms.
