Photos from the front lines

Leif Utne prefaces his photos from the FTAA conference in Miami with these words:
For all the horror of the Miami police department's war on dissent, and all the anger I and others have rightfully expressed, I have to point out what a beautiful and inspiring sight it was to see some 15,000 people -- including young anarchists, middle-aged environmentalists, immigrant laborers, retired trade unionists, and more -- gathered together to oppose this undemocratic trade deal.

I hope these pictures convey both the horror and the beauty of what I saw.
