Thousands Attend Greta Thunberg Rally at Denver's Civic Center Park

Great Thunberg, a 16-year-old Swedish activist, was joined by thousands at a climate change rally at the Civic Center Park in Denver, Colorado on Friday, October 11.

The Friday rally is part of a global rallying cry, launched by Thunberg, encouraging young people to participate in climate strikes weekly.

According to the Denver Post, a large majority of the crowd were teens and young adults from the state’s “indigenous and marginalized communities”. A panel of youth activists also spoke at the rally and some organizations led the crowd in song. Credit: J Audrey Nelson via Storyful
