Anti-War Protest.

Me and Mai headed out to the anti-war protest yesterday morning in Los Angeles. It was a gloomy, cold day, but I think I would rather march in that kind of weather than in the hot sun. It was a good turnout, although it was not as big as the one I went to 3 years ago.

After the protest, we were really hungry, so we went to that shopping center at the Kodak theater. Here I am, dressed in all black, with my bandanna still on, still holding my sign (picture of me and my sign below--so you can see how it may be just a little out of place). People were looking at us, well at me at least, like I was crazy. That place is full of boojeeness (another word for bourgeoisie), so of course we stood out. I was probably freaking some tourists out. As we were standing in front of California Pizza Kitchen and I was trying to explain to Mai that I can't be there looking like this, a security guard walks over to us. I knew he was going to tell me something. He said, "Ma'am, you're going to have to hold that sign upside down." And I told him, "Why? Because you don't want people to see the truth??" and he gave me a weird look. So I told Mai let's go, and we walked out of that place.

Upside down??? Seriously? Because people can't read or see something when it's upside down? Ridiculous. Luckily I did not want to eat or be at any of those places any way.


So here are some pictures and a couple of videos. I posted all the pictures on my Facebook and Myspace, so if you have me on there- check out the rest of the pics.:

You can get a glimpse of me at the very end.

The reason I posted this last video is because I liked the chant, it made me want to dance. =)
