#ShootBack Day 15: Then We MarchedFine Art.When people ask me what it was like in Ferguson, I tell them that it felt like being in someone’s home after their relative died. After a funeral. Even if no one verbally expressed it, the whole city had this pressing weight.Project #ShootBack is an informal photojournal account of my experience as an artist, photographer and young activist exploring the realms of my black identity within the movement while using the evolution of my art as a tool for self discovery as I uncover my history and potential. This is leading up to my goal of traveling to Selma, Alabama in March to photograph the 50th anniversary of “Bloody Sunday.” Thousands, including the president will be coming to town. I’m currently raising money for this trip and my activism efforts in general here:http://www.gofundme.com/ArtandActivism -- source link
