Free Tibet Demonstration

It is very rare that a photographer gets to inadvertently kill 2 birds with 1 stone when photographing events. Yesterday I was in Denver to photograph a rally consisting of conservative activists & suddenly I saw a group of protesters advocating freedom for Tibet marching around the Colorado state capitol. I don’t know what the groups name was. They marched around the capitol shouting slogans like “What do we want? justice! When do we want it? Now!” and “Free Tibet!” and “Stop the genocide!” among other slogans. On March 10th, 1959, China occupied Tibet and has since retained rule over it. These protesters apparently desire an end to the occupation. These are photographs from that event
