Protesters with a multitude of causes united Sunday in San Francisco against a common foe: the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum taking place in the city this week and the corporate-powered economic growth it seeks.

The issues espoused by the more than 3,000 people who rallied with signs and flags at Embarcadero Plaza downtown before marching up Market Street spanned the rights of Indigenous people, women’s empowerment, LGBTQ equality, and the environment, with a heavy dose of freedom for Palestine and calls for a ceasefire in Israel’s bloody war with Hamas. Starting around 12:30 p.m., speakers from various groups took the stage and amped up the crowd in a noisy but peaceful rally before the march began two hours later.
