I will never share the real photos I caught during the day they raised the bridges in Chicago. In 2020 friends and I entered a peaceful protest, me with my camera on hand like always—back then. Following the crowd, I captured so many inspiring images you couldn’t possibly believe, before things turned for the worst. This was the day I stopped carrying my DSLR like an 11th digit. The edited footage from this horrific day doesn’t deserve to be liked or engaged with for social media, but it cannot be forgotten. It’s all so awful, people are not meant to be in these places of violence. To see these scenes reprising themselves with a new message is beyond triggering and an HUGE sign #🖕🧊
