I have plenty of great video from today of excellent, passionate speakers...and I'm out of room on my hard disk with literally no back-up plan. Sorry, I'll have it up in a few to several days. Well worth seeing!

"Hollywood Women's Health Center: 862 N. Vermont Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90029
|
Just
across the street from Los Angeles City College (LACC) is the 'Hollywood Women's Health Center' which on the outside appears to
support women's health but in actuality is a deceptive front for the
Christian right wing group; The National Right to Life Committee. This so-called 'clinic'
exists not to provide women with birth control and abortion assistance information but is there instead to disseminate false information about women's health, contraception and pregnancy!! WE GOTTA CALL THESE LIARS OUT!! JOIN US!! This action is also a press conference for International Women's Day in support Women's Choice, access to birth control and honest information about women's health. Stand in solidarity with women's resistance in international struggles and support political independence from the capitalist parties!!"  They closed early at the first sign of protest:         Passing traffic were extremely supportive, with plenty of honking horns.        
  This is an example of how not to do things. These police rebuffed polite attempts at conversation and simply gave orders. Then they video'd all of us. How to win friends and influence people.  The event was already over; protesters marched onto the LACC campus:  |
