I live in Somerville, MA, where PhD student Rumeysa was taken from Tufts University. After work, I attended the protest at Powder House Square for as long as I could. Here are my photos. In the evening, I need to take care of my son, so this little bit of citizens' journalism is the best I can do.

(Update: I removed some photos for a legitimate request.)

Free Rumeysa written on pavement.

For anyone who cares, a vehicle of interest was a black Ford Expedition distinguishable by its heavily tinted windows on all sides (including windshield) and what looks like a small aftermarket antenna in back.
It seems to have been parked, and accompanied by 1-2 other smaller (but similarly tinted) vehicles nearby.
One might reasonably be less welcoming to vehicles like that than one would normally be to other new neighbors.

So glad to attend the Sona Jobarteh Band concert last evening!
“Born into a Griot family from the Gambia, a tradition that dates back seven centuries, she is the first female within this tradition to become a professional virtuoso on the Kora. Her music is uniquely poised between the preservation of her rich cultural heritage and an accessible, modern style that relates to the current era and to audiences from all over the world.”

Hey #Somerville! Do you like free food? How about local politics? (It's ok if you only answered "yes" to the first one) - Anyway I'll be hosting a little Teele Square meet & greet with my friends over at Mass Hole Donuts on Saturday. There will be opportunities to participate even if you don't want to talk politics. Please stop by if you can!

Seriously. I've ordered 100 donuts. Please stop by.

Text promotion, read: Free Donuts for Somerville Resident. Saturday, March 22nd 8:30 AM to 10:30 AM or until I run out. Mass Hole Donuts, 1157 Broadway in Teele Square.
Text reads: I’ll be posted up in Mass Hole Donuts starting at 8:30 AM on Saturday and would love to talk to as many Somerville residents as possible. Anyone who comes to say hi gets a free donut! Heck, you don’t even have to say hi if you’re not feeling chatty, just grab a donut and some campaign swag.
