Let Them Eat Cake
Another gray and dreary day in Washington, but the crowd eventually filled in. And they were rewarded with homemade cupcakes made by our volunteers Tina, Pam, and Brittany! We wanted to reward the people who have been coming out to every march, every two weeks since April.
We were able to gather 475 lbs. of food and supplies for Lower Columbia CAP, Oasis Animal Foundation, and Rainbow Community. We continue to be blown away by this outpouring of support for the people getting slammed by the one-two punch of winter and the Trump economy. And now ICE too...there's not been so much need in this region for years. So thank you all for your continued support!
The march was noteworthy in that we had a large turnout from our local latin community. They, and our regular marchers, are passionate about opposition to ICE. We planned a big protest for next Sunday, with some of the new friends we made today.
