NY Times photos and video of yesterday's marches and demos

Just to add to this report, it's unique and amazing, happening all over the world and in the most unlikely places. We can only speculate on what this all means, its range and continuity and what it may portend.

As in this remote Northwest coastal California county of Del Norte. Seeing a protest here, with appropriate signage, certainly was encouraging.

63% of  voters in our rural county selected Trump in 2016, with the last census reporting about 5,800 population which includes the 2700 inmates and the staff of perhaps the world's most notorious prison, Pelican Bay, with all that a carceral culture, prison staff and their families, brings to a small community. So I heard not surprisingly that someone waved a rifle out his truck window at the demonstrators.

In Curry County, OR, 23 miles from here, another county where about 59% supported Trump, my partner saw protesters yesterday, the twelfth day following the killing, and we're told they continue today.
