Title
The Loyola Phoenix: Loyolans join D.C. protest march
Description
A Loyola Phoenix article by Maria T. Galo reports that thirteen Loyola students "joined the Nov. 12 Coalition which staged a march on Washington D. C. in protest of the U.S. intervention in the Caribbean and South and Central America this past Saturday.
Among the students were four representatives of Lospes [Loyola Organization in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador], a representative from Afro-American Studies, a student from Peace, Bread and Justice, and four graduate students." Several of the students are interviewed about why they chose to participate, especially against the policies of President Reagan. The article describes a group of counter protestors, as well as the following rally with speeches by Rep. Ted Weiss and Presidential candidate Jesse Jackson.
