[WardFive] Watch video and photos of demonstration against Donald Trump in DC

We had a successful demonstration against Mr. Donald Trump.  Thanks to all the Elected Officials (Senator Paul Straus, Senator Michael D. Brown, Maryland State Delegate Ana Sol Gutierrez, Maryland State Delegate Joseline Peña-Melnyk, Arlington County Board Vice Chair J. Walter Tejada, DC Councilmember David Grosso, and others), Community Activists (Gabriela Mossi, Hector Rodriguez, Jose Gutierrez, Erick Sanchez, Eugene Puryear, Catalina Talero, and others), UNION MEMBERS, and many others who came together to send a strong message that the DC Metropolitan region does NOT WELCOME hatred, xenophobia or bigotry.  We will continue to add pressure for Mr. Trump to stop his message of hatred, bigotry, and division.  

 

Please watch video of entire program from our first part of the demonstration at: http://dcireporter.com/dc-holds-demonstration-against-donald-trump/, which started at Freedom Plaza.  We didn’t have our cameras rolling for the second part of demonstration in front of the site of the proposed Trump Hotel in DC, but the world did, and you can take your pick from some of those sources I list below. 

 

Please tune in tomorrow to Senator Michael D. Brown’s internet radio show, Shadow Politics, http://bbsradio.com/shadowpolitics , from 7:00PM to 8:00PM, where I will be a guest speaking about the demonstration and the next steps.  Internet radio show call-in number for comments or questions during that hour is:  1-888-627-6008.    

 

Thank you.
