Protest against the Israeli government’s decision not to open an investigation into the killings of 13 Arab civilians (12 of them citizens of Israel) in October 2000 by the Israeli police.
A committe known as the Or Committe (Or means "light" in Hebrew) was set up to investigate the killings. Its recommendations were rejected by Israel in the end. The sign is a play on the word Or and darkness.

Lunchtime protests in support of rape victims
02 June 2006 17:16
Lunchtime demonstrations were organised around the country today to support victims of child abuse and rape.
The participants included the child victim of Mr A, the middle-aged man who was released from jail last Tuesday after the law under which he was jailed was ruled unconstitutional.
Demonstrations took place in Dublin, Galway, Castlebar, Waterford, Wexford, Kilkenny, Tralee, Ennis and Limerick.

Gardaí estimate that 500 people protested outside Leinster House in Dublin city centre. The organisers, however, say about 1,000 took part.
The Rape Crisis Network of Ireland asked each protestor to bring a white flower - symbolising the need to protect the innocence of children.
It asked people who could not get to these venues to bring white flowers to their own area's central courthouse or church.
The network said the ten-minute protest was the idea of a Dublin mother, Monica Roe from Cabinteely.
Ms Roe describes herself as 'mad with anger' at the Government, which she accuses of signalling to all victims that they should not bother reporting child abuse.
The network is also asking participants in Monday's Ladies Mini-Marathon in Dublin to wear a white armband or white flower in support of victims or survivors in what it calls 'these difficult days and into the future'.

This protest took place in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida June 5th and 6th 2005. Although the protest was inspired by George W. Bush attending the OAS meeting taking place in South Florida, the protesters had many different agendas; some of the protesters were even there in support of Bush.
The Organization of American States (OAS), or, as it is known in the three other official languages, (OEA), is an international organization, headquartered in Washington, D.C., United States of America. Its members are the thirty-five independent states of the Americas.
The notion of closer hemispheric union in the American continent was first put forward by Simón Bolívar ("The Liberator") who, at the 1826 Congress of Panama, proposed creating a league of American republics, with a common military, a mutual defense pact, and a supranational parliamentary assembly. This meeting was attended by representatives of Gran Colombia (comprising the modern-day nations of Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, and Venezuela), Peru, the United Provinces of Central America, and Mexico, but the grandly titled "Treaty of Union, League, and Perpetual Confederation" was ultimately only ratified by Gran Colombia. Bolívar's dream soon foundered with civil war in Gran Colombia, the disintegration of Central America, and the emergence of national rather than continental outlooks in the newly independent American republics.
Funeral for Our Future - Service conducted by Stop Adani Melbourne and friends, officiated by Uniting Church Minister Rev Alex Sangster, Processional march by Riff Raff Marching Band, Songs lead by the Climate Choir, Eulogy for the Reef by Alan Cuthbertson from Stop Adani Melbourne, Eulogy for Nature by Joseph Birckhead and Audrey Cooke, Euologu for Children's Future by teenager Marco Bellemo, Call to Action by Rev Alex Sangster and Marco Bellemo.
A very moving two hour ceremony that started and finished in Federation Square in the Melbourne DBD on Saturday 1st December. It comes after Adani announced they would be proceeding with the Carmichael coal mine in the Galilee basin, such announcement coming in the middle of an extreme heatwave and catastrophic fires across Queensland.
A processional march ocurred across Flinders street,past the iconic clocks of Flinders street station and back to Federation Square.
The Funeral for our Future comes a day after several thousands students marched in Melbourne in a climate strike calling for Stop Adani, 100% renewables by 2030, and leadership by our politicians at state and Federal levels.
The events comes on the eve of the United Nations climate Change conference in Katowice, Poland, #COP24, due to start on December 2, 2018, which has the task of adopting the rulebook for the Paris Agreement that was passed at COP21 in Paris in 2015, that set the goals of limiting temperatures to well below 2C and strive for 1.5C by 2050.
Protesters causing complete mayhem this morning in the west end so I biked down to shoot some of this ruckus. Personally speaking, I think the protesters are causing more harm than good. Are they not wasting more tax money by protesting? Choppers and cops don't come cheap people.

PETA protester started to show up at the ShoWare Center two hours before the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus to protest the animal performances. The protester held signs up and handed flyers with information about treatment of the animals.
My visit to Chile was to attend the UN Climate Conference in Santiago, COP25, but two weeks before I left protests about a metro fare increase lead to an ongoing social crisis. The conference was cancelled the week before I left, then rescheduled for Madrid, Spain. My travel plans were already committed, but I quickly did some further booking for a return flight to Madrid from Santiago with 3 weeks in Chile, then 3 weeks in Spain. This is the first week I spent in Santiago.
My hotel was centrally located.... right near Plaza Italia the focus of all the protests and suppression of protests by the Carabineros with watercannon and tear gas. On several occasions the watercannon and tear gas were right outside my hotel window. I experienced the indiscriminate use of tear gas in the area on at least three occasions.
Most museums were closed, but I did find the museum of Memory and Human Rights was open.
I did manage to go for 2 bike rides during my stay along the Mapucho river trail.

Burmese nationals protest outside London embassy : 27.09.2011
As part of the worldwide protests held by Burmese exiles in London to mark the 4th anniversary of 2007's so-called Saffron Revolution in Burma which saw thousands arrested and murdered by government troops following public demonstrations against huge five-fold increases in fuel charges, a group of around 100 pro-democracy activists, supporters of Aung San Suu Kyi's National League for Democracy and UK environmentalists gathered outside the Embassy of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar in Mayfair, calling for the release of all political prisoners held by the ruling military junta, for the expulsion of oil company Total from Burma, for a halt to be called to the Irrawaddy River multi-dam project, and for land rights to be handed back to the regional Karen people who have been victimised, bullied, imprisoned and sometimes murdered by the ruling government who are angered by their cultural independence from the corrupt dictatorial regime based in Rangoon.

PETA protesters started to show up at Kent's ShoWare Center two hours before the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus Sept. 3 to protest the animal performances at the circus. The protesters held signs up and handed out fliers with information alleging the circus' mistreatment of the animals.
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.
Violence started to break out in the Circus, which was triggered when a Police van passed through the crowd. People (mainly Anarchists) started lighting bonfire, throwing quite literally everything (placards, sticks, ice-cream cones, etc.) at the police van and the police that were surrounding (and protecting) the van. Everyone was chanting at that moment
Protesting Arizona Senate Bill 1070 by marching down Congress Ave. after rallying the the Texas State Capitol in Austin, Texas. Arizona SB 1070 was a legislative act that was the broadest & strictest anti-illegal immigration measure in recent U.S. history. It received national and international attention and has spurred considerable controversy. The day before the law was to take effect, a federal judge issued a preliminary injunction that blocked the law's most controversial provisions. In June 2012, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled on the case Arizona v. United States, upholding the provision requiring immigration status checks during law enforcement stops but striking down three other provisions as violations of the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution.

We went protesting last Friday, because they want to merge the four smaller faculties, including Archaeology, with the big Faculty of Arts, which will mean the quality of our education will suffer greatly... Of course we can't let this happen :P
Minneapolis, Minnesota
January 17, 2026
Hundreds of people protested against ICE at the Whipple Building in south Minneapolis - headquarters for DHS and ICE. Employees of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) drove in and out of the location wearing masks to hide their identities or in cars with illegally dark window tint. At least 4 Hennepin County Sheriff cars were also there to keep protesters away from DHS & ICE.
Sign reads:
Ignorance
Chaos
