IMF Protesters Take to D.C. Streets
Sunday, April 16, 2000
Protesters hit the K Street corridor and Pennsylvania Avenue in
Washington, D.C., Sunday morning, vowing to disrupt the spring
meetings of the World Bank and International Monetary Fund. Workers,
environmentalists and students were among those in the crowds, including
demonstrator Melinda Thompson, who said her group's mission was to shut
business down, and Elijah, a protester from Chicago who said he opposed
the way the World Bank treated people only as consumers.
