Photos for the Women's March--from West Portal MUNI to the Embarcadero

Here are some of the signs from the Women's March today, starting in the MUNI streetcar!  It was a beautiful, sunny day (unlike last year!), and there were families as well as young women--and men with "I'm with HER" signs--and people as old as me!  (Hey!)  People were courteous and upbeat.  As usual, I ran into old friends/colleagues I see at these demonstrations!

I learned from the book The Vegetarian Crusades that in the 1800's vegetarians were abolitionists and supporters of women's right to vote.  It's good to see that today's vegans connect their diet  not just with their own health but with what's good for the rest of the world.

I never caught up with the AFT 2121's group, but here's a bright contingency from CCSF.

How unfortunate for Trump that his foul-mouthed callousness lent itself so well to signs like these.

The sign in the background is "People First."

Great to see so many families!  

One funny picture was with a sign over a little girl's stroller, "Fights like a girl."  But she was sleeping on the job!

This was just before the end of the Women's March at the Embarcadero.

Pertinent to the course we've been promoting:  Politics and Government in the Middle East.  I spotted several people carrying a picture of this girl  So who is Ahed Tamimi?  What is Israel's justification for imprisoning her?  What is her justification for slapping Israeli soldiers?  Enroll NOW! Poli Sci 45, Saturdays.
