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.

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.

Protest against "The Lines Company" for outrages lines charges. This far right company bringing hard ship to the lower income familys of our area. eg: Single pensioner living in a bedsit pays $128 a mth for lines charges and $40 (average bill) for power.
"We are calling you [residents] to join us in the street. We can't accept this situation. We can't only mobilize on Facebook, online, This is why we are in the streets-- to say "that's enough." We won't accept this. We're tired of schools closing, not being able to work or leave our houses."

Protesters headed for Washington DC on Jan 21, 2017 to participate in the Women's March on Washington
WalMart Protestors were arrested in Los Angeles. Protestors were seeking higher wages, better jobs, and the right to unionize.
Encountered this silent protest by chance....as body-painted participants made their way through crowded streets expressing their beliefs and raising conciousness on current issues like education, pro-life, corruption, gas pipeline projects and environmental issues among others. It was after 5:00 pm on a beautiful day so I had a very nice light to work with, no flash used.
Northern Ireland Republican protest art in Belfast.
Image taken in front of The Crumlin Road Gaol (Her Majesty’s Prison Belfast). (Corner of Divis and Northumberland streets). Part of the International Wall.
Large image on the wall is Kieran Nugent. He is known for his famous statement, "The only way they'll get a prision uniform on me is if they nail it to my back." This statement is reproduced under his image.
The "Made in Britain...Stormont" reference is sarcastic. It refers to the Irish Republican's viewpoint that the Northern Irish Parliament is controlled by Great Britain.

Right as I was taking this photo of police surrounding Yulia Tymushinko protestors, my phone rang. It was my friend calling to let me know its dangerous to be near any Yulia protestors because there might be a clash with police.
Yulia Tymushinko was the former Prime Minister of Ukraine, I don't know why she was arrested, I was just taking photos of the protest that managed to move into the center of the celebration. The police gave me some mean looks when they saw I was taking photos of them.
Protesting the new black format and "followers" vs contacts. No longer able to see who liked your photo, and conversations are more difficult. No posts on Flickr except these protests until Monday. A PROTEST.
Protestas en la Ciudad de México con motivo de los 43 estudiantes desaparecidos en Ayotzinapa. Sólo uno ha sido confirmado muerto.

Thousands of protesters and supporters gathered along the Embarcadero in San Francisco today to watch the official run of the Olympic Torch as it visited San Francisco and the United States.
Unfortunately most spectators and protesters were disappointed when after gathering for hours city officials changed the torch route at the last minute.
Rather than run the torch along the previously arranged route along the Embarcadero, according to the San Francisco Chronicle, the torch instead travelled from McCovey Cove to Van Ness Avenue where runners then ran the torch down Bay Street and Marina Blvd.
The change in route for the torch run did not change the protest mood down along the Embarcadero however. Supporters of the Olympics exchanged chants and shouts with protesters who mostly seemed to be protesting China's continued occupation of Tibet. Flags were waved and protest signs were carried in an overall peaceful demonstration.
