Protests begin in America’s big and broken cities to ‘fight the right’​

November 7, 2024 | Vivek Saxena | Print Article
Protests against President-elect Donald Trump’s victory broke out Wednesday in Chicago, Philadelphia, and New York City, despite him having won both the Electoral College and the popular vote.
“Donald Trump, you fascist clown,” the protesters in Chicago chanted outside the Trump International Hotel and Tower.
Watch:




“The rally was planned to protest the U.S.’s continued support for Israel’s war in Gaza as well as what protesters called the ‘racist reactionary agenda’ of Trump’s incoming administration,” according to Newsweek.

“This rally was called well before presidential election results as, regardless of the outcome, the genocide in Gaza won’t end as both the Democrats and Republicans have shown themselves to be united in their support of Israel in its genocide on Palestine,” the protest’s organizers reportedly wrote on Instagram.
“Now after another Trump victory, we continue resisting the racist reactionary agenda of his forthcoming administration, the ongoing U.S.-funded genocide in Gaza, and the rise of the far right here in the U.S. That’s why at this protest, we’ll be further building our movement around demands for a free Palestine, an immediate arms embargo on Israel, and an end to all U.S. aid to Israel—as well as people’s demands: Stop police crimes! Community control of the police now! Immigrant Rights and Legalization for All! Defend LGBTQIA+ & Reproductive Rights! Defend the right to unionize and strike!” they added.
Over in Brooklyn’s Cadman Plaza Park meanwhile, protesters chanted “for Palestine, women’s and trans rights, and peace, and against police violence and president-elect Trump.”

Watch:





And lastly, over in Philadelphia, the Philly Socialist Alternative organized a protest Wednesday against Trump and the supposed “far right.”
“Trump and the far right pose a danger to working people in the US and around the globe,” the group said in an Instagram post. “We urgently need to build a fightback, including strikes and walkouts, to fight Trump’s reactionary agenda of war, deportations, oppression, and bailouts for billionaires. It’s possible to fight the right, but we urgently need to start organizing now.”
Watch some of the protest below:


“The outcome to the vote is extremely concerning,” one Philadelphia protester told RFI. “But I’m not surprised.”
Her plan of action? Holding up a sign reminding people that racism and other isms aren’t OK.
“I will let people know that racism is not acceptable,” she said. “Sexism, homophobia, fascism, are not acceptable in this country. I am upset and sad, I am terrified. I think a lot of people are.”
Cathy O’Connel, who was reportedly on her way to work, concurred.
“Incredibly disappointed in Americans today,” she said. “I went into last night feeling some shred of hope, and I think Philadelphia turned out the vote for Kamala, which is the reasonable vote.”
The majority of Americans who voted for Trump would likely disagree with that assertion:


“I don’t understand how Americans can vote for somebody who runs on a campaign which is just about power for himself, power that he doesn’t plan to share, with anyone who voted for him,” O’Connell added.
“I am honestly surprised that the results turned out this way,” Denver Robbins, another local, said. “I did not think that the majority of people of the United States thought that voting him to victory was a good idea.”
Then there was Landy, a black protester who suggested that Trump won on account of voter fraud.
“I feel that a lot of votes weren’t counted,” he claimed. “There were a lot of Democrats voting yesterday. I’m frustrated about it. But what can we do?”

 
Minneapolis is waiting for Coach Tim and his bag of tampons. Fot the riots and fight for peace. And the sweet perume of burning tires. At the alter of Saint George.
 
Apparently it won't be in Bloomsburg Pennsylvania, and I was really hoping for an outlet to get all the emotions/rage out of system.
