As Olympics began, protestors took to the streets of Tokyo

BY A STAFF REPORTER

Protestors took to the streets of Tokyo to voice their opposition against the Olympics in Japan. The country has seen a rise in the number of Covid 19 cases and that has ensured many events will take place without spectators in attendance. Protesters marched down some of the capital city's busiest streets with banners to make their feelings known about the International Olympic Committee and Tokyo 2020 organizers' decision to host the Games given the pandemic. The 2020 Tokyo Olympics has already been delayed by a year because of the coronavirus pandemic.
