Last Friday, January 20th, was inauguration day. And shortly after Donald Trump was sworn in as president, protestors gathered in Portland’s Pioneer Square for an anti-Trump rally and march.
KBOO reporter Ken Jones was there with a recorder and talked with several of the protestors. All these interviews were conducted in the Square before the march began. You’ll also hear a direct report after the march ended at the western end of the Burnside Bridge.
Marchers were stopped from advancing on the bridge by a line of police in riot gear. The police set off flash-bangs and directed pepper spray at the marchers.
