Politics in the Zeros

Aug. 12 protest in support of people of Lebanon and Palestine

Thousands marched in Los Angeles and San Francisco and tens of thousands in Washington D.C. (Ignore the loony wire report saying 200 in L.A.) The L.A. marchers were predominantly Arab and Muslim, and I got some good video footage (especially considering this was my first time out with my new camcorder.)

The Phillistines. Palestinian hip hop! Members are Palestinian, Filipino, and American. Check it out.
