A Chicagoan's Trip to the Rally To Restore Sanity And/Or Fear
The following photographs are by Waleeta Canon, a Chicagoan who traveled to Washington, D.C. for the Rally To Restore Sanity And/Or Fear on Saturday. Some are already suggesting that the event could be remembered as one of the most important events in modern political history. Regardless of its ultimate consequence, crowd estimates put the turnout at over 200,000, or two and a half times the number of people who turned out for Glenn Beck's D.C. rally.
The following photographs document scenes from the crowd while paying special attention to participants' signs.
Additional photographs from the satellite Chicago rally by GB flickr pool contributor Michael Courier are available here.
