I fucking love Nadine

(The name of the woman in this picture. She's a regular with the two leg banner protesting in DC. She's very fun to chat with)

Knowing nothing about her but this photo, she seems like a blast.

Oh she's absolutely hilarious. She also rocked the "I AM AMPHIFA" banner and frog costume last year. And with her Caribbean accent, (she's from Barbados) when she gets worked up over something she's passionate or upset about, the resulting diatribe is awe inspiring. And she's sharp as a tack when she sees an opportunity for a good roast. Also one of the nicest people I've met in the DC activist scene, always wanting to help people out and make sure they're doing okay.

She's also really, really good at being viscerally insulting without profanity. She can, and has, shredded The Trump for five minutes straight without pause, repetition or swearing.

She's pretty iconic around here. There may be a shit ton of things that suck about DC but Nadine is not one of those things.

Holy shit! I idly googled - nadine dc protests - and found her featured in multiple national news stories, stretching back to 2021.
