We Won! Celebrating with a March Along Market St.

by Keep on Agitating
A rally to demand all votes be counted turned into a celebration of the Biden/Harris victory. It was no wonder, as the announcement of a Trump defeat came at shortly after 9am PST on November 7, and protests and marches were already scheduled throughout the day Saturday.

Contingents from the San Francisco Labor Council, SEIU Local 1021, the American Federation of Teachers and other labor unions marched up Market St. in San Francisco after Joe Biden was declared the winner over President Donald Trump in the presidential election.

Environmentalists held hastily made signs including "Paris: We're Back" alluding to the Paris Climate Agreement that Trump withdrew the country from and, on a hopeful note, "Climate Policy Coming January '21."

The bright orange "Trump Pence Out Now!" signs and stickers seen at nearly every San Francisco protest were in abundance; demonstrators said they are happy they will soon be passé.

The Angry Tired Teachers Band, consisting of real teachers from public schools in the East Bay, performed as it has been for at least ten years. They are older, probably angrier, and most certainly tireder.

The overall message conveyed at the protest of hundreds was, "celebrate, but we must continue to agitate."
