The lead-up to Saturdays protests against the TPPA shows the commitment of people across the country to send a message that the government cant ignore, said ItsOurFuture spokesperson Edward Miller.Nationwide day of action against TPPA: “Ignore us at your peril” government warned
“The lead-up to Saturday’s protests against the TPPA shows the commitment of people across the country to send a message that the government can’t ignore”, said ItsOurFuture spokesperson Edward Miller.
A video shows young activists publicising Saturday’s nationwide protests with footage from Auckland, Wellington, Dunedin, Christchurch, and Nelson.
Action in the 22 centres starts at 10am in Raglan and many of the larger centre marches begin at 1pm, including Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.
“People have been incredibly creative”, Miller said. “In Christchurch a giant plain-packaged cigarette packet will be marching in the crowd, while Auckland will be led by an enormous Trojan Horse, locked in a tug-of-war between major commercial interests and activist communities.”
“Around the country everyday kiwis will be photographed for a virtual campaign with signs saying ‘I am a ___________ and I say #TPPANoDeal.’ Already this campaign has been very popular.”
“Trade minister Tim Groser needs to recognise that people don’t buy the ‘trust me’ line. They want to be listened to when they say they don’t want the TPPA. And they deserve to be listened to.”

Nearly a hundred community activists joined AIDS Healthcare Foundation & AID Atlanta to protests the Centers for Disease Control's decision to defund community based HIV service organizations working in communities of color on Friday April 7th, 2017. They rallied in front of the CDC's main offices in Atlanta.
Signs pinned to trees on Pacific University's campus. I think they're in protest of trees getting cut down for new buildings. We've lost a lot of trees the past couple of years to development.

Protest the Hero is a Canadian progressive metal band from Whitby, Ontario.[3] Originally named Happy Go Lucky,[4] the band changed their name to Protest the Hero shortly before releasing their debut EP, Search for the Truth, in 2002. In 2005, the band released their first full-length album Kezia on the indie label Underground Operations.
On January 23, 2006, the band signed with Vagrant Records for Kezia's American release on April 4, 2006. Their second full-length album, Fortress was released by Underground Operations in Canada and by Vagrant Records worldwide on January 29, 2008.[5] The band released their third studio album, Scurrilous, on March 22, 2011.
Expressing frustrations with record labels, in January of 2013 the band announced that they would crowdfund their fourth full-length album.[6] The Indiegogo campaign was a runaway success, and the independently-released Volition debuted on October 29, 2013, distributed with the help of Razor & Tie.
We refused to leave the street and go home until our demand of capital punishment for war criminals are met. Took this photograph on yesterday evening, February 06, 2013, when thousands joined at Shahbag intersection in Dhaka, Bangladesh. It turned into a spontaneous mass protest with thousands of people continuing their sit-in programme to demand capital punishment for Jamaat-e-Islami politician Abdul Quader Molla and other war criminals. University teachers and students, journalists, cultural and political activists, particularly the young generation, gathered at the intersection. We claimed capital punishment for Abdul Quader Molla for he has been found guilty of five out of six charges, including a series of killings including some large-scale massacres in the Mirpur area of Dhaka during the country’s Liberation War in 1971. The given verdict has humiliated the whole nation and disappointed people seeking justice for the mass murder and rape by the collaborators, and also belittled the sacrifices of freedom fighters and intellectuals. The fiery protest is now spread throughout the nation, thousands of people in different districts are on streets demanding justice for war crime.

Beit Ummar, july 2011
Manifestation pour protester contre les violences de l'armée. La semaine précédente, un lieutenant a braqué son fusil chargé et armé sur un homme du village lors d'une arrestation. La scène a été filmée grâce à une caméra fournie par l'organisation israélienne B'T Selem qui défend les droits de l'homme. Cette marche est soutenue par la présence des activistes israéliens de Taayush, très impliqués en faveur des droits des Palestiniens.
La manif se déroule calmement au départ. Les enfants ont du mal à garder leur calme face aux moqueries des soldats, et finalement la situation finira par dégénérer. Un des soldats saisira l'enfant à la caméra par la gorge, avant de le relâcher. Un autre piétinera un drapeau palestinien. Quand les jeunes commencent à lancer des pierres, le commandant s'écrire, face aux journalistes présents "regardez, voilà leur manifestation pacifique." Quelle ironie ! Accuser les jeunes de violence, alors que l'armée débarque fusil au poing, en tenue de combat, avec des armes de guerre, pour les empêcher de manifester. Où est la vraie violence ?
Il y aura 3 arrestations après cette manif. Les soldats, par rapport à d'autres fois, ont du rester "modérés" car ils étaient filmés en live par un de leurs collègues pour faire bonne figure devant l'opinion publique. Malgré tout, ils ont tiré des balles de caoutchouc, des gaz lacrymogènes et des des grenades de dispersion sur les jeunes qui lançaient des pierres, mais aussi sur ceux à proximité qui ne faisaient rien.

In front of Yerba Buena Gardens where there was a Jewish Cultural event in progress, which was the most unfriendly gathering that I have walked through in San Francisco. Very heavy security, several requests to not take any photographs. So, I photographed the protestors.
About a thousand people of all ages came out on a cold evening in Blacksburg, Virginia, to protest current events.
Demonstrators protesting the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America talks initiated by Prime Minister Paul Martin of Canada, President Vincente Fox of Mexico, and US President George W. Bush in 2005. Perhaps the protestors' voices were heard because the SPP has subsequently ceased to be pursued. Or perhaps it diminished in importance following the election of new governments in all three countries.

Police Forward Intelligence Team photographer films protesters hurling insults at a small group of English Defence League protesters the other side of a 'sterile area' formed by the police.
Stop the Islamisation of Europe called for a demonstration outside Harrow Mosque in North West London to coincide with evening prayers on Friday September 11th. The protest was also being promoted by the English Defence League who have repeatedly clashed with Muslims and Anti-fascists in recent months. A counter demonstration was called by Unite Against Fascism.
About 1000 counter demonstrators gathered to protect the Mosque during the afternoon. Police ordered Stop the Islamisation of Europe to call of the protest to prevent violence.
A small group (less than 20) of English Defence League protesters were chased from the area by the counter demonstrators and were escorted away by the Police.
Frustrated elements of the crowd then turned on the Police resulting in a few skirmishes with bottles, stones and firecrackers being thrown. Other sections of the protesters eventually restrained these elements and by about 7.30 in the evening the crowd had started to disperse.
There were 10 arrests reported.

MANHATTAN, NY.
Several hundred protesters gathered near the famous bull sculpture in New York's financial district to protest the proposed $700 billion dollar bailout of the financial sector. The bailout involves the federal government buying up billions of dollars in worthless mortgages and mortgage-backed securities (little pieces of different mortgages stuck together to make bonds).
The protesters offered their junk to the federal government. Because if Uncle Sam will buy Wall Street's bad investments, why not yours?
Policiais atacaram os estudantes que protestavam ontem (06/03/2013) em Cuiabá. Tudo que os estudantes queriam era o direito de ter um teto sob o qual viver enquanto cursam a graduação.
