Many Cities Site of Anti-War Rallies
Thousands of people gathered around northern California on Saturday, out of millions in 600 cities on five continents that held international solidarity actions for peace. About
8,000 attended a rally outside the state Capitol in Sacramento, around 4,000 thousand marched to Cesar Chavez Plaza in San Jose and about 7,000 anti-war demonstrators
marched through the streets of Santa Cruz. Yesterday's massive march and rally in San Francisco was originally scheduled for Saturday, but organizers agreed to move it ahead a day after negotiating with organizers of Saturday's Chinese New Year Parade.
