I have a wonderful photo of me carrying a placard across Westminster bridge. In talking to the demonstrators that day,I learned that there was a side to the issue I had never seen. I had regarded the fox hunt ban as animal rights initiative, unaware of deep sociological implications flowing from the laws banning the hunt that I, a sociology undergrad before law school, had not considered. The economics of the English countryside are not simple, not just a matter of the humble vs. the elite., but serious fiscal impact issues that prompted the march.I am proud to have been a part of it. I marched for the California United Farm Workers in 1970 and for British farmers thirty years later,and proud of both.Linda Fetterly Roothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05679025414115279660noreply@blogger.com
