it was a peaceful sunny beautiful day for a march in Ann Arbor
with kids and dogs and big people too
all walking and talking and singing and chanting together
even a knight dressed in full armor came out on this fine day
all standing up together
for each other, for our neighbors, near and far, and for our country.
no kings.

One of the rights we still have, even with the illegal ICE murders, is the right to protest, to gather to let our leaders know that their actions aren’t supported…we are heading into a depression caused by a war nobody wants or understands, and disastrous fiscal policies not supported by anyone.

Thank you, Beth and Ann Arbor. Our individual and collective voices matter as we continue to rise. Strong. Determined. Standing up for what is right and decent and good, and standing against that which is wrong, evil, immoral…
