As a follow up to my post on Not In Our Name I put together a short video that I shot at the peace protest in Lansing on February 15, 2003.

I decided to post this because many people, including one of my college professors, wrongly think that everyone believed the lie’s that lead to the war in Iraq. I had to argue quite ferociously (classmates were yelling “hippy” at me) with my professor and even had to provide him evidence before he believed the protest actually took place. He apologized after.

I don’t fault him completely since almost zero news organizations covered the rally’s. Quite sad. A true failure of the fourth estate.

A few things you’ll see in the video:
- Approximately 3,000 people attended in Lansing and it was 20 degree’s.
- People handed out food for free and played music.
- At the end of the video you’ll see pro-war people protesting our demonstration. My favorite sign is “the 60’s are over”.
