<snip> The Mobilization for Global Justice, the main protest sponsor, and other activists also plan to voice concern over Paul Wolfowitz, the deputy defense secretary and Iraq war designer who recently won approval to head the World Bank.
With a permit for 3,000-5,000 people to march Saturday from the World Bank's downtown headquarters to nearby Dupont Circle, organizers are not anticipating the crowds that in the past have disrupted meetings and resulted in mass arrests. They do, however, plan a festive afternoon of music and poetry.
Activists insisted that smaller demonstrations are just a snapshot of broader opposition to U.S.- and European-driven economic policies, which they say benefit the world's richest countries at the expense of the poor.
"We will not have 30,000 people in the streets, but I think that we have millions of people around the world," said Njoki Njoroge Njehu, director of the 50 Years Is Enough Network, formed in 1994 to mark the bank's 50th anniversary. <snip>
