Today is set aside to remember a great man, one that fought for equality of all people, one who encouraged us to look within and realize that hate is to heavy a burden to bear, that only through love and understanding are we able to change the world. #MartinLutherKingJr #MLKDay2018 #LoveOverHate

New York City: Dr. King Day Rally for Working Class Resistance and Solidarity with Striking Workers!

Monday, January 15 - 2:00 to 4:00 pm

Time Warner HQ, Columbus Circle, West 59 St. & Broadway, Manhattan

*Meet outside Spectrum headquarters at 2pm - dress warm and bring comrades*

In 1968, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference launched an organizing campaign to demand economic justice and human rights for poor people of diverse backgrounds in the United States.

The Poor People’s Campaign was motivated by the idea that all people should have what they need to live regardless of race or class. After presenting an organized set of demands to Congress and executive agencies, participants in the original campaign set up a 3,000-person protest camp on the Washington Mall, where they stayed for six weeks in the spring of 1968.

Now, decades later, workers and radicals still face the same racist, classist, white supremacist oppression and state violence that plagued our forebears. We gather here today as radicals, as revolutionaries, and as workers to honor the sacrifices made by those who came before us in the long, bloody march towards liberation, and stand in solidarity with those continuing the battle. The people united will never be defeated - together we bargain, divided we beg!

Solidarity with striking Spectrum workers!

Solidarity with striking incarcerated workers, and with all incarcerated people!

Solidarity with union workers, and with those fighting to organize!

Solidarity with the working class!

Another few images, outtakes from the shoot in Kolkota for the special issue on race in National Geographic. These images were taken on a street in India named after the civil rights icon, Martin Luther King. There are over a thousand streets across the world in his name. For this global story covered by multiple photographers in remembrance of the 50th anniversary of his assassination, I was assigned to capture scenes of one of these streets in Kolkota, India. #mlkday2018 #mlk #india #kolkota #martinlutherking #nationalgeographic #natgeo #documentaryphotography

His name is Timothy Daniels and he hides stolen goods in his Grandma’s crackhouse..still a little upset he can get away without retort despite stealing from my studio while I went to the bathroom. It was in his backpack and he put on this whole act with his blonde curly haired bestie Austin to distract me from the broken stolen one they put where the one I paid for was that ended up in his shady ass bag. #nypd #liedetectortesthimtobehonest #swankydank ..do women need lawyers to be honest with these ignorant boys? How would you handle this situation? It occurred on the morning of #mlkday2018. Still trying to figure this one out without sending a letter to his Grandma that her grandkids are using the Home that is her inheritance for terrible things. #brooklyn #thisguy #verymanipulative #cokeboy still trying to figure out the most righteous thing to do for Martin’s sake. #disgraceful #journalism #news12 (at Flatbush, Brooklyn)

Banged out this aerosol piece last week for the @cityyearmiami project for #mlkday2018 while feeling under the weather but managed to get it done. I titled it "Dreamkeeper" from a Langston Hughes poem. I would like to thank @merdocheyl and awesome staff for their efforts and the opportunity to contribute my skills to the youth and school of @philliswheatleyhornets in Overtown. So happy to give back to youth!✌🏻✌🏼✌🏽✌🏾✌🏿 #charity #mlkday #mlk #youth #helpthem #inspiration #thekidsaretomorrow #future #overtown #cityartproject #cityyearmiami #urbanart #artforcause #mural #art305 #cubanurbanart #langstonhughes (at Overtown)
