Leah and I arrived early and set the sign in clear sight.


At 1:30, just a few people had arrived.


But the message started getting out immediately.


A couple of police officers keeping an eye on things.


Three shots, side by side.

The middle picture.


Speeches began shortly after 2:00.


The view from the focal point.


Avtar, a friend from downtown.


D.B., a well-spoken Vietnam vet and Iraq war supporter.


After speeches, a march along Clifton Ave. to Ludlow and back.

Later, we found that Leah made the local alternative paper, Citybeat.

More fun later,
