I’ve been tweeting individual tweets instead of a thread today, I’m going to compile everything for the rest of the day onto this thread. Welcome to J20.
Bipoc organizers are being ignored. Things have taken a turn south. Two organizers have been heard saying “I am ready to dip“ and “the cops are already down there, we are not prepared to deal with cops right now, we need to go. “
Targeted arrest, I do not know the names of the arrestees, and I wouldn’t tweet them if I did.
Decent crowd at Irving.
“This speech is about white supremacy and how it must be stopped.”

A number of organizations have tables set up for people, so that they can spread their message and increase support. One of these groups is a local labor union of hospital and sanitation workers.
The democratic socialist of America also have a booth set up. If you’re looking for a way to get involved with the movements, and fight for progress for our country, but you don’t feel safe coming out to protests and being on the streets physically, the DSA is a good way to go.
This car somehow, I’m not sure how, I drove up onto the side of the other car, balanced sideways for a second, and then flip the rest of the way sideways. Both cars have children and car seats in them. Everybody appears to be OK.
And we have riot cops in response to the flipped car. Lovely.
And we are marching, despite the abundance of cops already present. But the cops do not appear to care, which is ideal.
These are excellent shots from an excellent photographer regarding the accident earlier https://twitter.com/topqualityfire/status/1352068365204946946
