This march was different from any other one I’ve seen; it had the most diverse population of any protest I’ve ever been to before. The number of whole families who came out was amazing; kids of all ages were there. Seeing 11 year olds sporting Che Guevera buttons was very impressive. There was every age and ethnic group there, from all over the country (I was doing some petitioning in the crowd so I got a good idea of just haw many states were represented.) The guy in the wheelchair with the “World War II Veterans Against The War” sign was great. Seeing a bunch of goth teens groving on Joan Baez was something too!

I missed the Green Party feeder march, but the GP table was doing a good business:

Sadly, there was a reminder that the war is still doing a good business too:
