Photodocumenting the protest as it revolves around the Flint Center marching by and pausing at certain locations, the front of the bldg's enterance, near the parking lot, etc..
§Regarding the picture above and this one,
by tbg

it was taken by the parking lot which gave way to a side enterance/exit for patrons or 'mingle area'..the center's security (red plaid skirt lady included), center organizers?? and cops blocked the area and tried to get the protesters a few feet away from mingling through the crowd, yet there wasn't much of a divisive space. The dressed muslims were sarcastic and began escorting bewildered and confused Powell patrons to the area in a helpful manner telling them the way 'to hear the lies being told'. Officials weren't quite sure what to make of that. :)
§this was actually a funny picture..

the male wearing the red scarf began loudly saying something to the ladies approaching the area...i have no idea what she said in reply but the guy ended up being a little quiet and turning back to the area..it was kind of comical..(she probably commented about the volume??)

she's the very same lady who held Malcolm X when he was shot. an amazing lady involved and witnessed to several protest and actions in the past. AWOL mag has an article on her.
