There was the big unemployment line protest this morning, complete with people and their pink slips, but Gothamist has a feeling all eyes will be downtown, in Battery Park, for Axis of Eve's Operation EXPOSE and DEPOSE, where protesters will flash their protest panties. Of course, this is a way to sell AoE's protest panties and tanks, which will be on sale before the 6PM protest (meeting at 5:30PM), but who wouldn't want a "weapon of mass destruction" hot short? [Via reader Danielle - thanks]
Also, Naked Boys Singing will be at Theater Four, 424 W. 55th Street, tonight at 8PM, thanks to the Imagine Fest (check out the other events tonight, too).
