Saturday, September 22, 2012, San Diego, California. -- San Diego's Largest Ever Rally Against Wal-Mart. Back on April 17, the Sherman Heights community in San Diego was shocked to see bulldozers tearing down the historic Farmers Market at Imperial and 21st. Wal-Mart had plans to replace the Farmers Market with a “Neighborhood Market.” By six o’clock the next morning, 50-60 community, union, and other friends of Sherman Heights were rallying in front of the Market, locking arms to stop the bulldozers. Five months later, the number of those opposed to this corporate assault had risen to the point that they called for this march and rally. Photo by Nic Paget-Clarke. |
