Under the directions of social worker Mr. Parhlad Kumar Aggarwal CBSE’s
daily vase worker’s protest going on under Gandhigiri with rose. There way
of protesting is not a violent act at all rather to make people realize
their importance they are presenting to them with roses. CBSE’s daily vase
worker’s are protesting peacefully since 21st June 2008 to get their
demands fulfilled. It came to notice they were fired from their work on
30th June 2008 while their term was due for first week of September. They
were demanding to give them their jobs back and provide them with their
complete wage of the whole year. Apart from this they demanded not to
treat them like slaves, like other workers they must also be provided
with basic facilities. Mr. Parhlad Kumar Aggarwal who is protesting on
behalf of these workers told that these workers are buying these flowers
from the money that they had kept for milking their children so that the
protest may go on smoothly in spite of these the government is not paying
attention towards this, may be because the government only understands the
language of violence (like recentlyk happened in Gujjar aandolan). Our
government should treat all the protest equally and understand the need
behind this. It must be understand that these workers are imparting their
services since 14 years, so rather than making new appointments on these
posts, why don’t make these workers permanent. Rather our government
system is promoting contract system of working labor; the basic reason for
this is the illegal way of getting money with the mean association of the
contractors and the concerned officers. Government need to ban this
contractual system considering it a bounded labor system and as soon as
possible apply the system of equal pay for equal work so that frequent
committing of suicides and deaths because of huger may be stopped. These
workers are not bagging rather they are demanding deserving rights and
protesting against government rules since long time by applications. Now,
finding no other way, they have to choose the way of protesting which is
again not violent rather a complete peaceful protest and for this their
way is presenting flowers to the concerned officers. In spite of being
hungry by themselves they are sending their petitions to the government
along with flowers and doing candle-march to show light to the government
which has sunk in darkness, in bright sunlight. In spite of this, Human
Resource Development Ministry and CBSE are not ready to accept our demands
and are not ready to talk which is clearly evident of the fact the our
democratic Indian government is violent rather non-violent, and this is
completely unconstitutional.

Protest in the ethnically cleansed city of Prijedor. Marchers walk with backpacks with the names and ages of children killed in the genocide. The protest was granted on the condition they didn't say the word "genocide". In the center of the town the backpacks were set down to spell out "GENOCID?".

Always enjoy shooting a protest, even on vacation. From what I can tell this protest pertained to immigration-related legislation being considered in the Alþingi, Iceland's parliament.

WalMart Protestors were arrested in Los Angeles. Protestors were seeking higher wages, better jobs, and the right to unionize.
Should be a fairly interesting day.
Just having my coffee and heard some loud shouting of: "Whose streets? Our streets!" outside my window.
I took a couple snaps of the group on their way downtown. Don't have any idea of what was in the large cart they were pushing along..
Maybe I'll go down and scope out the action and take some more photos.
UPDATE: (Looks like the SWAT teams are out and also the National Guard. I think I'll try to get as many good photos as I can, but I don't really want any pepper spray in the face if I can help it. - I do have a gas mask I found at ..a thrift store! Imagine that? LOL!)
Protests and riots sprung up across the U.S. this week following the death of George Floyd, a black man suffocated by a police officer during an arrest in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on Monday.
Around 7 p.m., a protest began in Oklahoma City at the intersection of NW 23rd & Classen. Chants of "NO JUSTICE. NO PEACE." filled the air as hundreds of protesters circled the road to block traffic. Dozens of police officers arrived. Arrests were made. I took as many photos as I could.
Much of the early portion of the protest was peaceful. I couldn't see anyone fighting until police arrived to clear the intersection. Around 9 p.m., protesters started marching toward toward the Plaza District and eventually marched to the Oklahoma City Police Department Headquarters, 700 Colcord, and eventually dispersed from the area at about midnight.

A group of Romanians protested the use of cyanide in gold mining operations in Romania. For several hours on a brisk spring day, they gathered in front of mine company investor John Paulson, hedge fund manager, investor, and held up banners and passed out flyers.
The protest was part of a larger international movement against the Romanian government’s controversial decision to allow a Canadian firm to build Europe’s largest opencast gold mine.
Environmentalists and activists are warning that the mine, if opened, would lead to the destruction of four mountain peaks and three villages. Terrible as that would be, their greatest fear is the planned use of cyanide, a highly toxic substance, that is required for the mining process—12,000 tons of it each year.
The fear is well grounded in recent history. In 2000, a cyanide spill near the town of Baia Mare, Romania, occurred when a dam containing toxic mining waste burst, releasing 100 tons of cyanide-contaminated waste water into the Lapus, the Somes, as well as the Tisza and Danube rivers.
Considered the worst environmental disaster since the Chernobyl nuclear leak in 1986, the poisoning of the river Tisza resulted in the destruction of the river's entire ecosystem in a matter of days, everything from microbes to otters, according to the BBC.
flickr sperrt uns aus! Und auch dich!
Seit kurzem werden für deutsche Nutzer keine Bilder mehr angezeigt, die als 'moderate' oder 'restricted' markiert sind! Es gibt keine Moeglichkeit das umzustellen - das ist eine grobe Unverschämtheit und Frechheit von flickr!
In English:
If your Yahoo! ID is based in Singapore, Germany, Hong Kong or Korea you will only be able to view safe content based on your local Terms of Service so won’t be able to turn SafeSearch off.
In other words that means, that German users can not access photos on flickr that are not flaged "safe" ... only flowers and landscapes for the germans ...
We will not let this happen! Copy and upload this picture to your account - show flickr who we are!

Dziś rano aktywistki i aktywiści Greenpeace pojawili się przed siedzibą PGE z ośmiometrowym transparentem na którym znalazła się przerobiona reklama koncernu z hasłem – Mamy energię do negowania kryzysu klimatycznego. Akcja jest komentarzem do oficjalnej odpowiedzi spółki córki PGE – PGE GiEK – na pozew klimatyczny fundacji Greenpeace, w której największy niszczyciel klimatu w Polsce zaprzecza naukowemu konsensusowi w sprawie zmiany klimatu. Aktywistki i aktywiści domagają się od prezesa PGE Wojciecha Dąbrowskiego wzięcia odpowiedzialności za strategię całej grupy PGE i pilnego wyznaczenia daty odejścia PGE od węgla na rok 2030.

Protesters gathered on the Haigis Mall of the University of Massachusetts to mourn the death of New Jersey state police officer, Philip Lamonoco, and protest the lecture, “The Great Western Massachusetts Sedition Trial: 20 years later” that took place at the Isenberg School of Management on Thursday, November 12, 2009. The lecture, originally planned to include Ray Luc Levasseur, former leader of the United Freedom Front, was forced to continue without Levasseur because of the U.S. parole board’s decision to not allow him to cross state lines as part of his parole restrictions.
