The No to APEC coalition is made up of more than 100 grassroots organizations.
SAN FRANCISCO — Activists protesting corporate profits, environmental abuses, poor working conditions and the Israel-Hamas war marched in downtown San Francisco on Sunday, united in their opposition to a global trade summit that will draw President Joe Biden and leaders from nearly two dozen countries.
Police fired at the crowd with rubber bullets that injured several protesters and a Reuters journalist. Chief Bill Scott of the San Francisco Police Department said he expects several protests a day, although it's uncertain how many will materialize. He warned against criminal behavior. “People are welcome to exercise their constitutional rights in San Francisco, but we will not tolerate people committing acts of violence, or property destruction or any other crime,” Scott said.
