Reply #3: i was actually surprised at how many people were there [View All]

because it didn't seem like a lot of organizing was done around it, although being on campus all of the time i sometimes get out of the loop of how the other groups are mobilizing.

we had a great youth bloc, I didn't really do a head count, but we had at the absolute least 50, and it wasn't publicized at all. We marched through Calhoun Square on our way to the main rally, which was really cool. Storming buildings is always fun.

They actually had more cop cars (that i saw) for the youth bloc than the for the bigger rally. Shows who they are scared of. ;)

The protest also seemed a lot more energetic than last year. I've heard good things coming from SF and NYC too elsewhere on DU.
