Saturday I biked to the anti-Trump rally in Santa Rosa. Courthouse Square was jammed with thousands of protestors holding home-made signs. So many people I had difficulty reaching the square. No parking.
When younger I participated in the civil rights movement and the anti-war movement. This demonstration felt like that, like a movement that came from people, not from a political party.
The crowd looked different, made up of a mix of middle-class families, radicals, retirees, etc. All sorts of people have problems with Musk/Trump.
I must have had friends in the area, but, lost in the crowds, I didn't see anyone. And I'm old now. I left early.
Everyone do something, even a small thing.
