H8

I shot these today in front of the California Supreme Court.

The moment of the day was when I rode my bicycle on the street which separated the two crowds of people backed by barricades and policemen. Not everyday do you get to ride your bike between to giant masses of competing people. I felt like I was Moses crossing the Red Sea or I was walking through the DMZ which separates North and South Korea.

His sign should say everyone because I think everyone is a pervert.

Yes, I rode my bike alongside to get this shot.





Regarding some of these images, I really wanted to capture what hate looks like to me on the 5th of March, 2009 for documentary purposes.

Naturally, I got there late. I came when others were going but still witnessed those marching for their rights and the rights of others. There was a DJ spinning and people dancing on the corner of 19th and Dolores. I still don't understand the moment for dancing. I don't know how to express the disappointment I feel in regards to this outrageous proposition. Someday, the population will look back on this moment in history and express towards it the current distaste and discomfort we feel when we reminisce on the days of segregation. The same question will come forth: "How did they allow it?" So many times throughout history we have asked ourselves that very same question.
