MARCH ON WASHINGTON TO END THE WAR!

The largest of the demonstrations was in Washington, D.C., where "a raucous and colorful multitude of protesters ... danced, sang, chanted and shouted their opposition" in front of the Capitol (Washington Post, 1/28/07). While most estimates put the crowd in D.C. at 100-150,000, organizers for United for Peace and Justice claimed up to 500,000 attended. There were also smaller demonstrations in dozens of cities and towns across the country, including rallies of several thousand in Seattle, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.
