Nov 2 2004 "Reclaim the Streets" Action in Baltimore
On November 2, 2004, people expressed the simple message that, in these dark times, we need to "Reclaim the Streets." Engaging in playful activities, and creativity, the people who participated in this action radiated hope and commitment to a long-range vision of a more cooperative and compassionate society. Despite the arrival of police, and seven arrests, their message was added to the scale of public opinion.
