PHOTO STORY: Spring brings UNM flora to life across campus
April 7The first couple weeks of Spring have brought the University of New Mexico’s bright flora and fauna to life across campus. Flowers, both natural and planted, have begun to bloom around the Duck Pond, along walkways, and throughout UNM’s most beautiful outdoor study or relaxing spots. Students will find that the large rose bushes outside of the Science and Math Learning Center have developed red, pink and yellow flowers, with many more still preparing to bloom. Tulips have popped up in rows outside of Ortega Hall, and pink and purple flowers have begun to grow in the trees outside of Scholes Hall and the Alumni Chapel. The brightest colors and blooming flowers are yet to come as temperatures continue to rise leading into the peak of the spring season.
PHOTO STORY: Albuquerque No Kings march draws several thousand
March 29Major intersections were shut down for Albuquerque’s third No Kings protest, which drew approximately 50,000 participants to Montgomery Park and hosted multiple speakers, including former Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams. Chants criticizing President Donald Trump, Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the war in Iran echoed throughout the crowd. Some participants highlighted Blackstone’s proposed acquisition of energy supplier Public Service Company New Mexico, chanting “Our home is not a sacrifice zone,” and carrying banners that read “Back off Blackstone." Radiance LaJeunesse, who marched with the crowd, said she attended because of “all injustices,” including (the Trump Administration) “pulling children away from their families and killing American citizens.” “It's got way out of hand, this little science experiment that Trump wants,” LaJeunesse said. “I won't lie. I do believe that Democrats are a little spineless. I am a Democrat. But because that's the only way I can vote in every single election, so I make sure to do that.” Leila Chapa is the social media and photo editor for the Daily Lobo.
