PROTESTS AT US PRESIDENTIAL INAUGURATION Jan 22 2001


Thousands of protesters have converged on Washington DC to express their anger at the inauguration of the right-wing 43rd President of the United States, George 'Dubya' Bush. Diverse groups representing environmental, anti-corporate, anti-racist and many other causes are demonstrating and taking direct action. Police communications have been jammed and roads have been blocked while African-American members of the US Congress have boycotted the ceremony. Police, supported by National Guard troops, are struggling to maintain control of the US capital. Protests are also taking place in other US cities and across the globe.
