On Thursday, I saw a broadcast of Nicholas Hytner's ferocious Julius Caesar, in which a bunch of idealists who know bugger all about realpolitik get trampled by the rhinoceri of empire. Yesterday I got to march with the unmanipulated. Being Boston, the day began as spring and then snowed, just a little. A nan'easter.
My friend CR and I deeply admired this badass Charity. This picture is hers; the rest are mine.
This is what we looked like from above. On the ground, it was not a mob, but a crowd in harmony: many voices with one end There were lots of dogs, lots of children, lots of good signs.
