Submitted by marc on June 28, 2007 - 6:20am.I have some video snippets from Wednesday's opening march at the United States Social Forum at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYENUhPlwsE. The march wound through the streets of Atlanta, starting at the state capital and ending up at the civic center where many of the USSF events will be held.

The first day of the USSF closed with an Opening Ceremony in Renaissance Park behind the Civic Center. A series of talks and musical acts connected our struggles. It is a good start to what promises to be a good week of activities.

Our Madison group pulled into Atlanta about noon, and we joined the opening march thru the streets of Atlanta. I've post a bunch of photos of the march at http://picasaweb.google.com/marcbecker2/USSFOpeningMarch. Hot and tired, but very happy to be here.
