  • An image shared on Facebook and Twitter allegedly shows a massive crowd in Los Angeles on Oct. 2 of this year. Hear us roar.🔉💪 pic.twitter.com/451xWAwsFf — MJ Cannon #RuleofLaw (@mj_ruleoflaw) October 2, 2021 This was taken today in Los Angeles. — MJ Cannon #RuleofLaw (@mj_ruleoflaw) October 2, 2021 Verdict: False The photo of the Women’s March was taken in January 2017, not October 2021. Fact Check: The claim that the photo of the large crowd was taken Oct. 2 has circulated widely on Facebook and Twitter in recent days. Women’s March, an organization that describes its mission as harnessing the political power of diverse women and their communities to create transformative social change, helped stage pro-abortion rights rallies across the country that day, according to NPR . A reverse image search revealed the picture actually dates back to January 2017. It can be found on Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti’s Flickr account , where it is described as showing a Women’s March in Los Angeles that month.
