In this photo taken Monday, Nov. 25, 2019, Lisa Wathne holds original sea turtle costumes, like the one she wore 20 years earlier that were made for protesters at the World Trade Organization (WTO) demonstrations in Seattle, in Lake Forest Park, Wash. Wathne and other demonstrators wore the cardboard turtle shells to protest WTO policies, including one interpreted by protesters as disregarding the plight of turtles killed by shrimp nets. A wide array of issues brought tens of thousands of protesters to Seattle 20 years ago Saturday, with one unifying theme: concern that the World Trade Organization, a then-little-known body charged with regulating international trade, threatened them all.
