Hundreds of thousands of protestors will gather in cities across the country to speak out against war in Iraq today:

Becker said people from 220 cities nationwide have committed to attending the demonstrations, which are slated to begin on Washington's National Mall at 11 a.m. EST.
Demonstrators will converge at the Capitol and march to the Washington Navy Yard, a military installation in Southeast Washington.
In San Francisco, California, where organizers predicted a turnout of about 50,000 protesters, the day's events begin at 11 a.m. (2 p.m. EST) with a march from the waterfront down Market Street in the heart of the city to the Civic Center.
