As the US entered the
fifth
year of war in Iraq 50,000 demonstrators marched in
Hollywood, the largest demonstration
since the Vietnam War. Massing in front of Graumans Chinese
Theater, they were
addressed by Mrs. Vicky Castro, a
Gold Star Mother whose soldier son was killed in Iraq, & notables
including Martin Sheen, the actor, & Congresswoman Maxine
Waters. Their speeches were interspersed with musical
performances by Jackson Browne,
singing
"The Drums Of War" & "Lives In The Balance," Ben
Harper singing "Gather 'Round The Stone" & "I Believe There's a
Better Way," and excerpts of Ozomatli in concert.
