"Honk for Peace" at Lake Merritt--now in its 4th year
The Lake Merritt peace walk, dating from 1991, began again in 2001, shortly after 9/11. The weekly demonstration is a Sunday afternoon event which helps to keep the antiwar movement visible in Oakland.

TIME & PLACE
3 o'clock every Sunday; rain or shine, summer & winter, till the war's over
at the Colonnade, near Lakeshore Ave. & Highway 580
-----------------------------------------------------------------
THERE'S A LAKE near the edge of downtown Oakland, and for over three years now it's been the centerpiece of a weekly antiwar demonstration. Every Sunday afternoon a small group gathers at the northeast end of the lake, then sets out on a three-mile stroll around its perimeter.
The first time I attended was in March 2003, just a couple weeks before the war started. The meeting place was the "Colonnade," a tastefully designed structure which looks like something out of ancient Greece. It was almost three o'clock, and I got there as people were beginning to arrive.
