Ryan Rose

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ryan Rose (born May 18, 1981) is a journalist living in Sacramento, California. Rose documented Vacaville resident Cindy Sheehan's 2005 protest of President Bush outside of his Crawford, Texas ranch, also known as the Western White House.

From Rose's 2005 investigation into the Sheehan protest:

They came because they had to. With two wars already raging overseas, America faces a new conflict within its borders. Strangers traveling from all directions came to fight. Bringing protest chants and homemade signs, they came from Birmingham, Ala.; San Francisco; New York City; Detroit; Visalia; Sacramento; and New Orleans--name a state, and there was a delegation. They all said the same thing: They came because they had to. All alluded to an almost religious compulsion. Call it a political revival--a sort of baptism in the river of world affairs.

As of 2006, Rose is serving as managing editor of The Sacramento Union.
