A Hopeful Note

If there's a hopeful note to be heard following the 2016 election, it may be in the upsurge of popular activism and protest this year, the first of Trump's term.  Singer-songwriter Eliza Gilkyson has just published a new video capturing the despair, but more importantly the hope being generated through mass popular activism. This resonates with my own experience with actions and marches--they almost always leave me upbeat and hopeful. In a way, success or failure of these actions doesn't matter nearly as much as the pursuit itself.

I was lucky to get a couple of my images selected for the project--hope you enjoy it.
