Election Reflection: Peter LaBerge C'17
(11/10/16 8:11am)
Last night, I participated in the Solidarity Walk, a march led by a number of organizations up Walnut, across Locust, and down Spruce. Stationed at the front, I internalized the rhythm of our chants—Love Trumps Hate. Not Our President.—and synchronized it with my walking. I listened to people shout mostly positive things out their windows, listened to cars honk in support on the street. Afterwards, I went to the Speakout in the Hall of Flags and took my place in the crowd, a crowd wide open and hurting. I snapped and clapped next to my friend Elizabeth, my voice blown out of my throat.
