PHILADELPHIA (AP) – The Latest on demonstrations around Philadelphia ahead of the Democratic National Convention (all times local):

9:40 p.m.

More than 1,000 people have joined Hollywood stars including Shailene Woodley, Susan Sarandon and Danny Glover in Philadelphia for a climate rally on the eve of the Democratic National Convention.

They vowed Sunday night to keep fighting for climate and environmental justice issues, even though their preferred presidential candidate, Sen. Bernie Sanders, would not be driving the party’s agenda.

Many in the crowd wore Sanders shirts, buttons or lanyards. Some carried signs like, “Bernie would end fracking,” and the now defunct “Bernie for President.”
