---|---|---|---|
Washington, D.C. | In Washington, D.C., an estimated 200,000[2] to 800,000[3] people attended the "standing-room-only rally" on Pennsylvania Avenue.[4][5][6] | In a March 24, 2018 article, Time magazine reported the estimate by event organizers as about 800,000 people, as did NBC News[7] and The Hill. At that time police officials had not released an official crowd size estimate. Law enforcement had "prepared for 500,000."[5][8] The Time article also said that the event "brought downtown Washington to a standstill...[f]rom the foot of the Capitol to the White House more than a mile west, Pennsylvania Avenue and its tributaries".[5] Speakers included Marjory Stoneman Douglas students Cameron Kasky, David Hogg, and Emma González.[4] The New Yorker's Margaret Talbot, who attended the event, said that its most remarkable aspect was its inclusiveness, not just its extraordinary, impressive size and "consistent demand for a ban on assault-style weapons, or the focus on defeating politicians who take money from the National Rifle Association."[9] |
