I can't tell exactly how big the crowd is because almost no light but it looks massive. High hundreds A performer whose name I should really, really know by now is performing an a capella rap he wrote especially for this occasion

Thank you! It's C3https://twitter.com/kmcdade/status/1302453028889350145?s=19 …

CE talks about ninjas. He says, ninjas don't directly confront samurai. They go for leadership "We're in a state of guerilla warfare. You are outnumbered and outarmed. We aren't the samurai. We are the ninjas, and we gotta use the tools we got. We gotta go undercover"

He talks about his father and the foundations of the Black Panther party. This old struggle This grounding in time helps me remember that this is a long fight. The importance of patience even after 100 long days "Do what you've got to do but stay true," C3 sings

An activist talks about marching plans "Remember, if they try to stop us, be water!" "Be soup!" someone yells out "Yes! Be soup!" The crowd chants "Black Lives Matter!" and gets ready to move out

Holy shit, it's DJ LRAD Before the march even forms up, before anyone even really moves towards the street, we are informed that we will not be permitted to march to East Precinct, that we are to return to the park via sidewalk

I kind of expected the Portland Police to be very PR-conscious this evening. Maybe this is their way of doing that. Try to keep it to the park, where it's dark and no one can take any good footage of Day 100 Yeah, that feels right
