Thousands protest Kennedy Center demolition fears

Excerpt

Thousands of people have demonstrated at the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C. amid fears President Donald Trump's administration could demolish the arts hub.

Crowds of people gathered in the Foggy Bottom area of the US capital city, many carrying signs as they joined in "Hands Around the Kennedy Center."

Some of those gathered held hands and formed a human chain around the center.

Protesters waved placards reading "hands off Kennedy Center" and sang songs close to where workers removed Trump's name from the building in June following a court order.

Thousands join protest outside Kennedy Center, expressing concern that Trump might tear it down

Excerpt

WASHINGTON (AP) — Thousands of people joined outside the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts on Friday evening to protest President Donald Trump's plans for the facility, lending their voices to a chorus of organizations and individuals who have been horrified that he might make good on his threat to close and tear down the storied institution.

The crowd streamed in from the nearest subway stop, crowding streets in the Foggy Bottom area of Washington and locking down traffic as they walked, many carrying signs, as they joined in "Hands Around the Kennedy Center." At one point some held hands and formed a human chain around the center.

Thousands march in Washington as leaders warn of voting and civil rights rollbacks

Excerpt
“Defending the vote means defending the foundation of our democracy,” said King III in a statement. “Sixty-three years after my father stood at the Lincoln Memorial, we are called to march again, not only in remembrance, but in action.”
According to the organizers, the march aims to "confront ​the systemic rollback of civil rights ​at this critical moment," ⁠referring to President Donald Trump's efforts to curb mail-in voting, weaken anti-discrimination protections across the federal government and fundamentally shift what civil rights are.
"We stand on the same ground because the work is not ​finished," Sharpton wrote in a letter to supporters. "The right to vote, the very foundation of ​our power, is ⁠being chipped away in statehouse after statehouse. When the vote is weakened, every other right grows fragile with it."

Peter Thiel drops Argentina event as protests target his investments - UPI.com

Excerpt

The choice of character was a pointed reference to Thiel's well-documented fascination with Tolkien. Thiel co-founded data analytics company Palantir Technologies, whose name comes from the "palantíri," seeing stones in Tolkien's fictional universe that allow their users to communicate across long distances and view faraway events.

The demonstrators protested Thiel's growing presence and investments in Argentina, including a recently disclosed $76 million stake in oil producer Vista Energy, according to elDiarioAR.
