Protest Outside the Superbowl
Dispatch from Refuse Fascism Norcal
Around noon, fifteen to twenty people gathered on a coffee shop patio to build some picket signs, talk about the plans, gather our crew, and organize our carts full of literature and signs. Then we walked over to join a march of about 1500 people, maybe more.
People were fiery during the march, lots of chants and good energy “Revolution!” was a popular chant, “No ICE, No KKK, No fascist USA!”, “Fuck ICE!”, etc. We made sure “Trump Must Go Now”, and “Fuck Trump” were also chanted loudly.
The march culminated in a permitted rally area which was ½ mile from stadium. Our large yellow banner got a lot of attention from the press.
We gathered about 50 people and marched back to the stadium. Eventually we walked to the main gate as people were coming and going and handed out thousands of flyers linking to the People’s Indictment of Donald Trump: A Unified Declaration of Illegitimacy.
We set up the yellow banner and cranked up the PA and chanted and played music by Waking Stone, Outernational and other protest artists. We engaged with a lot of people there. It was never ending with the crowds at the main entrance. We stayed until 10pm but could have stayed longer meeting more people.
We had a big presence, with our banner, boisterous chanting, and speaking with people. People who joined us were very enthusiastic and signed up with our RF chapter.
