4:42 p.m. -- 60,000 is the new estimate from the Atlanta Police Department.

“The march has been peaceful and without incident,” said APD Sgt. Warren Pickard in an email.

There is a timeline regarding the march at http://www.ajc.com/news/state--regional-govt--politics/police-estimate-000-atlanta-for-the-social-justice-march-the-capitol/PlaULPX2mykkjcHk799zLP/ .

[font color=330099]It was an incredible turnout considering that only 10,000 were expected and the weather in Atlanta was rainy.[/font]

1. I know it's the headline but it's not the "social justice march." It's the Women's March.

And yes, I know some people in Atlanta were calling it the march for social justice and women, but this thing was the Women's March.
