[Peace] today

[Shirley Stillinger]

Historically, this has been a difference in the parade's reception in Urbana
and Champaign.  For years, I marched with the local ACLU:  big cheers along
Lincoln, a chill once we turned on Florida, and overt hostility when we got
into Champaign.  Some years ago, a gay rights group was warmly met in
Urbana, had empty beer cans thrown at them in Champaign.

I was hoping that this year the anti-war marchers would also be cheered in
Champaign.
