"Local activists Brad Newsham and Travis Van Brasch on January 10 organized a massive human banner at Ocean Beach in San Francisco that read, in all caps, "IT WAS MURDER - ICE OUT!" and included an American flag that rotated upside down, signifying distress and danger. The words were etched into the sand in 100-foot letters before many of the participants arrived by 11:30 am."
"The organizers and several of the participants helped with the prior "NO KINGS" human banner at the same beach last year. Their efficiency and accuracy are evident, as each letter had a Letter Captain who helped participants stand facing the ocean, an arm's apart from the next individual, and to stay within the lines. In the early afternoon, drones flew overhead to capture the dramatic resulting human banner and the coordinated turning of the flag."
On January 10, local activists Brad Newsham and Travis Van Brasch organized a massive human banner at Ocean Beach in San Francisco that read in all caps, 'IT WAS MURDER - ICE OUT!' An American flag included in the display rotated upside down to signify distress and danger. The message was etched into the sand in 100-foot letters before many participants arrived by 11:30 a.m. Each letter had a Letter Captain who guided participants to stand facing the ocean, an arm's apart, and stay within the lines. Organizers and several participants had worked on a prior 'NO KINGS' human banner at the same beach. Drones captured aerial images of the coordinated display, which are being shared worldwide.
