‘Free Palestine’ protesters briefly step into Rose Parade procession

A group advocating to Free Palestine walked Colorado Boulevard briefly on Wednesday morning, Jan. 1.

Initially, parade-watchers in the crowd thought the protest at Colorado Boulevard and Oakland Avenue   was another parade entry.

But then, after a pause, many realized it was a protest.

Parade-goers said there were about eight to 10 people in the protest group, marching in a straight line, much like other parade marchers as they carried a big banner.

Ancillary sign carriers with Free Palestine shouted out at the crowd but in a subdued way.

Last year, protesters briefly blocked the parade before they agreed to depart peacefully.
