And so they came, all races, all ages, all trades and all creeds, all manner of Americans pushed too far for too long, all united in some variation of one major impossible-to- ignore-anymore theme: something has gone terribly, terribly wrong in and with America and something must be made right and made right starting right now.
Never in a lifetime of protests have I witnessed a march as diverse and representative of this country as the one I saw yesterday afternoon march from Foley Square to “Liberty Square.” The only group missing were farmers but maybe I just didn’t see them.
Something is at last beginning to awaken in America and it feels good, so good to see it.
