from sewing costumes to paint filled balloons, folks came out to dissent to the U.S. empire in so many ways. who was it that said that the role of the artist (meaning everyone in my book cause we all make art in one way or another) is to make revolution irresistible?

this cat was blatantly dragged into the fray where the arrests were happening by a cop for no reason at all. he was trying to get out of the street at the time.

earlier in the day at the noon die in, i watched this veteran get arrested. later, she's at the march in a truck, draped in (i think) a U.S. flag upside down and a peace sign flag. other vets were there as well.

at one point in the later march, the cops tried keep us from going where we wanted. so we sat down in the street until they turned their dirt bikes away. i'd say about 50+ folks sat down together on mission street!
