San Francisco Anti-War March -- January 18, 2003
On Saturday, January 18, 2003, thousands of protesters took to the streets of San Francisco to march in protest against a potential U.S. war with Iraq. The march was timed to coincide with the anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday as well as a massive march in Washington, D.C. The march moved over the course of three hours from the Ferry Building to a rally at the Civic Center.
