Photo: Looking to the northeast from the southwest, about 23 (of 200 or so) protesters are in frame, with their backs to the camera, facing the office building that houses Platform Ventures, an "Entrepreneurial Investment Firm." Signs with legible messages include: "Only You Can Prevent Fascism" "'Make Good Trouble' – John Lewis" "Justice for Renee Good" and "Arrest Jonathan Ross for Murder NOW!" The office building is limestone on its first two floors, with faux window arches featuring crest-like shields and faux rod-iron balcony railings decorating the windows on the second floor. Its exterior is more ordinary red brick from the third floor (where Platform Ventures is headquartered) upward.
