The sun sinks (but also rises)

The sun has gone down on so many hopes and dreams, rights and responsibilities, in recent days. 

“Even if President Trump acts only on ten percent of the most problematic of his campaign proposals, it will cause a momentous setback for human rights at home and abroad. The onus is now on elected officials and the public to demand respect for rights that the President elect seems to have put in his crosshairs.” (Kenneth Roth, executive director of Human Rights Watch.


So it's been exciting and  inspiring to see and hear the groundswell of protest rising from the Women's Marches today - in Philadelphia, Atlanta, Portland, London, Norwich, Aberystwyth, Brecon... So much passion, courage, humour and resilience in the face of the juggernaut of repression and bigotry that is threatening the world. 


Thanks to all those who took part, and who took photographs.
