Day of Protests

 Dexter, Michigan, Protest at 1:00 PM

The protest rally was held in Monument Park in downtown Dexter, around 10 miles west of Ann Arbor. Dexter has a population of 4,500. We estimated that around 200 people were in the park.

Although the park across the street was crowded, the streets were almost empty.

Dexter celebrated its 200th anniversary last year. This is the downtown in 1908 in a mural on the wall of the bakery.
Quite a few buildings are unchanged.



Ann Arbor, Michigan, Protest at 4 PM

Each of the four corners of the streets at the protest site  were crowded with people carrying signs.
Our guess is that there were around 500-600 people present
 

The rally was scheduled at an intersection of two major streets at the edge of town.
This seemed mysterious until we realized that downtown and the campus area were overwhelmed by the annual Hash Bash today.
