Currently still in progress (first shots): the yearly Amnesty International open-air concert in front of Antwerp cathedral, a ten hour (2pm-midnight) free event, aimed at raising funds and awareness about worldwide human rights. The Belgian rain along with a chilly 55°F/12°C wind did not succeed in chasing away the crowd. As individuals we’re powerless when human rights are trampled, but united we can make a difference. Check the website, select your country and help those who cannot help themselves. Are you taking action?

Indeed Van, it’s Dutch, linguistically related
As I generally don’t appreciate the noise of the evening crowd, I took these snapshots right at the start around noon. Did you notice (some of) our (armed) cops ride bikes? Kind of an unusual touch.
