Men and women of all ages, race, and sexuality were encouraged to come together in peace and provide support for their neighbor in need.
"We just felt like we had to, we weren't able to go out to any of the things yesterday because of work and school and we just felt like we needed to do something be somewhere with people." said Meg Austin.
She and her friend wore matching shirts that said, "Babes Support Babes".
The Bentonville square was filled with more than 500 people in attendance.
Although they differed in age, race, and religion they all shared the same spirit of peace, love, and solidarity.
