Hamburg was on fire last weekend, but the majority of people chose a peaceful way to show their protest. One of them was the rave against G20 with the lovely german name "Lieber tanz ich als G20". 25,000 people dancing and protesting against injustice; spreading love to the beat. Now on my blog: www.zielecki.com/blog/g20-protests-lieber-tanz-ich-als-g20
Thousands of teachers, pupils, parents and grandparents took to the streets of Brighton and Hove today to protest about government funding and pay. They were joined by members of other unions as could be seen from some of the banners.

The pic of my son poking his head through an otter head hole, with the private bits of the otter next to him pixelated has been removed from Explore in the infinite wisdom of Flickr reacting to the censorship issues involving our friends from Germany, Singapore, Korea and China. Ah well, so it goes...

On June 6, 2020, about 175 historical ships from the so-called 'brown fleet' gathered near the fortress island 'Pampus' to protest against the lack of government aid in the corona crisis. According to the skippers - the fleet has about 400 ships in total - many bankruptcies are imminent in their sector due to the corona crisis. In the summer months, the money is earned on vacation and other trips that with the partial corona-lockdown could not continue. The bankruptcies also threaten to remove a piece of history from the Frisian and Dutch waters.

The rally and march were in protest of a federal appeals court ruling earlier this week that Kamehameha Schools' practice of giving admissions preference to students of Hawaiian blood violates federal civil rights laws, first passed in 1866, barring private institutions from discriminating on the basis of race. -Honolulu Advertiser
Bus trip from Huamauaca in Jujuy province of north-western Argentina, to La Quiaca on the Bolivian border.
Protesters would block roads for twenty minutes at time. Think it was indigenous / land rights type of grievances.
Have cobbled some video footage of the trip...after 10 years

Gorgeous protesters taking part in Somaliland demo, London, 22.02.2012.
Surprisingly, there is a video - www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxJHNsH3yeU on youtube related to this event .
students, curious onlookers
until someone handed them
a sign and a crisp $20 bill
so they joined the festivities
and chanted the catchy phrases
and glared at the men in blue
who seemed cautiously amused
by such a ragtag ensemble
of suburban undergrads
who had paused on their way
to pizza and pitchers of golden
lager at a nearby pub:
Storm the Bastille,
one shouted, Down with
Tyrants, Start the Revolution,
raising his beer koozie
in a solemn toast, adding,
I should like to be
in the gutter by nightfall.
Falun Gong, auch Falun Dafa, ist eine spirituelle chinesische Praktik. Sie kombiniert Meditation und Qigong-Übungen mit moralischen Grundsätzen basierend auf den drei Tugenden Wahrhaftigkeit, Barmherzigkeit und Nachsicht. Die Praktik betont Moral und die Kultivierung dieser Tugenden. Wikipedia
I am protesting. I am wearing this Just Because demo to protest time zones. I read that Fameshed was opening at noon. Where I live it is now 1pm. Yes, I could have realized that it's noon SLT, but I am still going to protest time zones. I think with some clever scripting it should be possible for those in the eastern US to get in early and get our shopping done. Come on scripters, make this happen! In the meantime, I'm wearing a demo until (checks watch) 3pm.
Millions of people worldwide joined protests against the polices and work of Trump and Musk. www.cnn.com/2025/04/06/us/video/anti-donald-trump-elon-mu...
In a small village on National Highway 1, very near the Line of Control, between Drass and Kargil the villagers were in the middle of a sit down protest.
The reason for this was that they had been stopped from farming on the land behind their village as it was too close to the LIne of Control and therefore rather dangerous. They were not happy so they just all sat down on the highway, the main link between Srinagar and Leh. An official was summoned all the way from Srinagar, many hours away.
We were all stuck there until he arrived with his entourage. He talked to the villagers and within 10 minutes they all got up and let the traffic through.
Running to Protest took over the Brooklyn Bridge this morning for Breonna Taylor and all the beautiful humans lost.

Ecclesiastes 5:6
Do not let your mouth lead you into sin. And do not protest to the temple messenger, “My vow was a mistake.” Why should God be angry at what you say and destroy the work of your hands?

Dressed in white with white cowboy hats, these protesters were quite unexpected for their subject matter. You just never know what you will see.
ODC: unexpected.
This is my little protest of the current issue affecting Flickr users. This week I noticed I was not seeing all of my contacts' recent uploads, nor were they seeing mine. I notified Flickr staff who said it is a known problem and the engineers are working on a long-term fix. They also said they didn't know how long it would take. Good grief, sharing photos is the heart and soul of Flickr!
They were able to "rebuild" my Activity Feed so it is currently showing my contacts' uploads. Fingers crossed it stays that way and they can fix the site-wide problem ASAP.
ETA: I'm still not getting all of the new uploads in my Activity Feed. I'm having to go look individually. : (

Watching protesters infront of Harrow Central Mosque in the distance.
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.
