Three Iraq war protestors in front of the White House. I originally posted this in June, 2005, when the American attitude toward Iraq was largely tepid. That attitude has now turned very much against Bush after three more years of no resolution, spiraling casualties, a staggering national debt, and conflicting statements from an administration that views the world as an American playground.

I stumbled upon a large protest against Austria's Freedom Party (FPÖ) in Vienna late at night, showing that many don’t agree with their right-wing populism. I wished I had my Leica M11 instead of an Ilford HP5 loaded M2. But I made it work. #ProtestVienna #wien #PoliticalProtest #FPÖ #Austria #FreedomParty #Activism #Wahl #Nationalratswahl #NRW24 #streetphotography #streetphotographers #LeicaM2 #ilfordhp5 #anaog #analogphotography #monochrome #voitländernokton #28mm #Street

A protest, organised by the recently formed group Stroud District Together with Refugees, took place outside the Subscription Rooms on Monday evening.
Around 70 people gathered on the Sub Rooms forecourt, with plaques and banners, and staged a 30-minute silent vigil opposing Government plans to deport asylum seekers to Rwanda. A similar protest was held in June.
Leader of Stroud District Council, Cllr Catherine Braun (Green, Wotton-under-Edge) later addressed the protestors, saying: “I think the policy is horrendous and there are no legal and safe ways for people to claim asylum in the UK and if legal and safe routes existed, desperate people who are fleeing violence, conflict and persecution would take them and they would not risk their lives embarking on dangerous journeys like crossing the channel, so the most important thing is that the government sets up safe and legal ways for people who are in need of refuge to come to the United Kingdom.”
Caroline Beatty, one of the organisers, said: “We are holding this vigil today because it’s the first day of the High Court hearing to decide the legality of the government policy to transport people to Rwanda. It’s going to take five days as far as we know and then there’ll be a second hearing in October. We’re horrified that they appear to be going ahead without even knowing if it’s legal or not.
“There will be people all over the country who are showing their deep concern about this. I think it needs to be exposed for what it is, and I was looking at the definitions of smuggling and trafficking – people smuggling is the action or practise of illegally transporting people from one country to another and that is what the government policy may well turn out to be, a form of people smuggling – nationally and internationally sanctioned.
“I think the government is playing a very strange game and it’s horrible, but they’re kind of legitimising the very behaviour that they claim to be trying to stop.”
Cllr Braun added: “It’s just so great to see the number of people who’ve turned out on a Monday evening to be part of a National Day of Action here in Stroud. This is a new group, Stroud District Together with Refugees, which has been set up just in response to this new policy around deportation of asylum seekers to Rwanda.
“People feel very strongly about it. I think the Conservative Party have really timed this wrong. They haven’t captured the mood of the country. People want to welcome refugees to our country and to provide them with safe and legal routes to apply – we see how people have opened their homes to Ukrainian refugees during the war.
“I think most people in this country would like to see ways for people to safely claim refuge in the United Kingdom.”

Protestors near the Labour club. I could have set this up a little better - there's too much green and lamp post, where it would have been better to capture the policemen, the photographer on the left and the reporter on the right.
Annual protest in Hebron for the reopening of Shuhada Street (aparthied street). Shuhada Street lies at the centre of the ancient city of Hebron. For many years it was a busy shopping precinct, full of life. Today it is deserted. When the radical Israeli settler Baruch Goldstein shot dead 29 Palestinian worshippers at Hebron's Ibrahimi mosque in 1994, the Israeli army feared reprisals against three nearby Israeli settlements. It closed off the street to Palestinian vehicles and later Shuhada Street was blocked even for most Palestinian pedestrians.Most of the people who once lived here have left their homes. All the shops have closed, and Palestinians living in the area have to climb over roofs to reach their neighbours. In addition, they suffer violence and harrassment by settlers and soldiers, who often neglect to intervene to protect them from settler violence.
Protesters against nuclear weapons demonstrated in Grand Central singing Ain't going to study war no more." This man was arrested, I think, for blocking the stairs. He kept singing, though. See: U.S. Is Pushing to Deter a Mideast Nuclear Race

People protesting against the rise of right-wing movements - among other things.
Slightly blurred, but it's not easy to take a good picture if the crowd marches toward you at quite a speed.
