Detroit: On The March To The USSF

Just a few snaps of this afternoon’s march to Cobo Hall in Detroit opening the Social Forum.  The energy of the march was wonderful, I am no good at numbers, but the consensus of those I was with put the number at around 5,000 (over ten thousand pre-registered).  I ended up behind a contingent of young Jewish radicals for part of the march; the chant: “We’re Jews! We’re pissed! We are anti-Zionists!”  Within minutes of arriving I saw comrades I hadn’t seen in far too long (why yes, those are gray hairs), and the minutes following brought many more such happy reunions.  I’ll be at the Forum in and out and solidly come Friday, will have more as the week develops.
