Earth Day

A group of environmental activists dressed in black participate in a community parade in Portland, Oregon, carrying a large Earth globe decorated with flowers on a wheeled cart while walking down a residential street lined with trees and houses.

I was passing Revolution Hall on my bike when I saw a group of colorful humans assemble. It wasn’t immediately clear to me what this was all about, but I soon figured out that this group was setting out on an Earth Day procession through some of the neighborhoods in Southeast Portland. I decided to park, lock my bike, and tag along to take photos.
