Overpass Banner - East Bay

by bov
Although the fumes were fierce up there, these activists got lots of honks and waves this morning.

This was a banner being shown on the bike bridge in Berkeley this morning (near Universtiy). According to reports from them, CHP came once on Thursday, and Caltrans approached them on Wednesday, so they left those times. But no cops were on the scene while I was there.

One person did pull off the highway and approach us while I was there. He'd seen the banner and was inspired, said he wanted to organize a daily vigil. "We should be here every day," he said. He talked also about organizing for slowing traffic, in future actions, although in what manner I can't say.

You wouldn't think it, but on that relatively thin bike bridge, the banner could be easily read from both sides, so this banner had messages on both sides.
