a protest

on friday i was immersed in my studies when out of nowhere i heard chanting, marching bands and helicopters...

must be another protest.



i was right.

i ran down to the end of my street where octavia meets market to discover ...









it was may 1st, so may day was in full swing.

at delores park, not only did the anarchists of san francisco throw a "raging picnic" to celebrate international workers's day, but labor leaders with ilwu local chapters 10 & 34, the "workers without borders" and "united in struggle" all met to march downtown and protest...well, working with borders.

when i made it down to the end of the street, i had asked what was going on. the man i asked told simply said, "communism."

i went home.

another day in san francisco
