Was she marching on her lunch break?

From Chron.com's NewsWatch: Immigration blog in a post on yesterday's downtown march:

While most protesters opted for cushy sandals or sneakers, Emily Patterson marched on in two inch black heels - and a gray business suit.

Over the deafening sound of cheers echoing under an overpass, Patterson said she didn't feel out of place. Patterson is a criminal defense attorney with the Mayor's Advisory Committee on Immigrants and Refugee affairs.

"Everyone's effected [sic] by immigration,'' she said.

Wow. (You can visit MACIRA's page on the city's website here.)

Which gets me wondering if any other city employees were out marching yesterday.
