Biggest Peace Protest (Nov 15 1969)

Went to the most amazing peace protest today organized by the Vietnam Moratorium Committee! We drew a crowd of .5 million people! I got to meet so many new people who were into the same values as me and wanted to GIVE PEACE A CHANCE! Got to listen to such amazing campaign speakers, but there's no doubt that the best part was hands down Pete Seeger leading all 500,000 of us to sing Give Peace A Chance! If only Lennon were here! He would be so overwhelmingly proud! He created the song for this sole purpose and this is what he would've wanted and more! I just wish I couldve heard Senator Kennedy's speech! Someone put some of it on my twitter page and tagged me in it so i could see it and i quote: "I do believe this nation is in danger of committing itself to goals and personalities that guarantee the war's continuance." I really dig his thoughts they seem to be a lot like how i feel about this situation. Overall it was a fantastic day!! cant wait for more protests!

Here are some pictures I took today!
