A visual metaphor for the way my brain feels after this work week:
[via: ffffound]
"A photograph allows . . . contradictions to exist in everyday life;more than that, it encourages them. Photography is about being exquisitely present."
The silhouettes of the police along Canal Street as we marched onto the West Side Highway, eventually snaking around cars, some honking their horns in solidarity. I would later see three people getting arrested for nothing other than marching in the street, an attempt to intimidate the crowd. The arrests were random, unprovoked, and chilling. There is an electric feeling running through New York City. This city, she is weary and restless for change.
“It wasn’t until I started reading and found books they wouldn’t let us read in school that I discovered you could be insane and happy and have a good life without being like everybody else.”
John Waters
