New York, NY - October 27, 2007. Thousands of antiwar protesters took to the streets on Saturday, October 27, 2007. Their spirits weren’t dampened by the pouring rain that fell for the first half of the day. Wielding umbrellas, slickers and an unrelenting conviction that the war must be ended now, marchers filed out of Union Square and processed south on Broadway. The march, whose lead contingent featured members of Veterans For Peace (VFP), Military Families Speak Out (MFSO) and Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW), concluded in Foley Square with a Peace Fair. VFP and MFSO had tables at the fair - as did the students and youth: the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) table was a very busy place.
