Since the 1970’s I’ve loved making photographs in the street during demonstrations and festivals. It is the best time to meet strangers and hear a story that may be extremely different from my own. When my kids arrived in the ‘80’s their mother insisted I take them with me as I think she thought I was having too much fun and they would limit me. As it turns out, I think it was easier to approach a lot of people who didn’t look like me or even speak English by having my two year old son on my shoulders and my seven year old daughter holding on to a belt loop. San Francisco Pride, Carnaval in the Mission, and general wanders through Chinatown made me less of a threat, and maybe even entertaining with my kids in tow. I tried to be a good dad, and teach my kids to value all the variations in people, and I am grateful for the opportunities of visiting the diverse Bay Area communities that were all within a thirty minute BART ride. Pride is the first of the Seven Deadly Sins, so instead I will admit that I am happy with the values my children have internalized, and as they are passed along to the next generation.

"I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant." —Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech, Oslo, Norway, 1964 Rev.

Though Mr. Nostalgia loved the things he sold, he had no illusion that they held any intrinsic value. They were worth only what you would pay for them; what small piece of everything you had ever lost that, you might come to believe, they would restore to you. Their value was indexed only to the sense of personal completeness, perfection of the soul, that would flood you when, at last, you filled the last gap on your checklist.

Michael Chabon, Telegraph Avenue
