OTG: large crowd massing at west side of city hall. Speakers calling chants, peaceful assembly
Call for all City Council to create a defunding plan for Philadelphia police along with the abolishion of the FOP and PAC. It's worth noting that only one sitting council person put herself out there and voted against the police budget in the middle of the uprisings in June. Thank you Kendra Brooks.
OTG: Crowd is growing, Market blocked off. Police seem relaxed so far but have a presence around City Hall and MSB
Most likely travel corridors for police. Race arch, chestnut walnut, 15th 16th, 13th 12th, 20th 21st, 7th 8th
FYI if you're in West or know anyone near Parkside spread the word that a lot of cops seem to be staging out of the Mann Center parking lot

Hey Bloc, reports that a wagon is following you and some concern about connections to vandalism related to the protests.
OTG:march is spirited but peaceful. No vandalism observed by any one on the ground.
