Cool pics, Amar. I was actually going to email you today to see how May Day was going in SF.
My photo was actually from April 1, when OccupySF took over 888 Turk Street in San Francisco. It turns out that the afternoon march here ended with them re-taking the same building (they were kicked out in early April). That is still going on, unsure how it will turn out. I was not able to go to this, but I did go to the earlier noontime event downtown.
A lot of the events today were overshadowed by a march in the Mission District last night that was not associated with or endorsed by any local occupy or labor groups and caused a lot of vandalism. It’s quite sad, both because I like the area that was targeted and it tarnished the reputation of the movement.
Yes, I was sad to read about what happened in the Mission District.
