The march began at Justin Herman Plaza at San Francisco's Embarcadero.A skit was performed illustrating the vast sums the US spends on warfare and could easily be redirected to healthcare for all.
As the marchers went down Market Street, music and slogans were amplified throughout by Robb Godshaw's bicycle mounted PA system.
A rally in front of City Hall started with a moment of silence for the millions of victims of our country's inadequate health care.
