Saturday, April 21. U.S. Mexico Border FTAA Protest. This was the chaotic
scene as the protest march arrived at the actual crossing check point of
the U.S. - Mexican border. Thousands of people had gathered at that point
and involved themselves in a myriad of activities... drumming, handing out
bilingual flyers against Globalization, drawing revolutionary pictures on
the closed street using colored chalk, and much more. I took this photo of
the Black Block pushing up against a chain link fence next to the
border.... with many dozens of Riot Police on the other side. Aside from
some taunting there were no incidents of violence.
