Marching against war

Peace activists celebrate Armistice Day in downtown Chico

The City Plaza in downtown Chico became the gathering spot Saturday (Nov. 11) for a march by a group of peace activists who’ve launched a protest called Confronting Endless War. Those activists include Cathy Webster (left) and Emily Alma. The celebration was not for Veterans Day, but rather in honor of Armistice Day, marking the 99th anniversary of the armistice signed in 1918 and ending World War I.
