Pro-Palestinian organizers convened their March on the DNC on Monday with great fanfare but fairly small numbers.
Organizers had predicted that they might draw as many as 40,000 people four times the number of anti-Vietnam War protesters that showed up in Chicago in 1968 .
Polls indicate that since Ms. Harris became the nominee, she’s made massive gains over President Biden among constituencies most supportive of the Palestinian cause.
A small group of protesters held up a banner that read “Stop Arming Israel” during President Biden ’s address Monday night .
The protests Monday were mostly peaceful, though a few hundred protesters pushed through the outer security perimeter, leading to a handful of arrests.
Chicago police Superintendent Larry Snelling was personally on hand to help coordinate the police response at the DNC .
