Please share widely!
Could not go to this march, but attended the one in 2000 (can’t believe that was almost 10 years ago). Glad that the next generation came out in force.

p>How was media coverage of the march? – I saw a piece in the Globe, but didn’t catch TV news.
I read quite a few comments here not long ago about the size of the 9/12 protest crowd in DC… and that partisans and supporters over-estimated it. You just cited 150,000-200,000 attended the LGBT march but for some reason I can’t find any reputable reporting of the crowd other than “thousands” (LA Times) or “ten of thousands” (Huffington/AP) of attendees. Where did you get your 150k-200K number?
