"I Can't Breathe!"


Instead of writing words echoing the evident collective distress at the momentous events, here's a selection of the photographs I made on June 2, 2020 during a peaceful protest march that started in Washington Square Park. They can also be viewed here in higher resolution, and here and here as a multimedia slideshow.

To start, these words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. are appropriate:

"Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom. A man can't ride you unless your back is bent."






















Call Me KIJU

Here are impromptu street portraits of Kiju on Crosby Street in Soho, NYC. Kiju is an alternative rock performer.
