This is Part II of a personal project. On June 14, I opened my studio to people who were protesting on the town common in front of my building in Plymouth, New Hampshire. You can see Part I HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I asked each person “Why do you protest?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I want to be part of the solution. At home, I watched the protests in L.A., D.C., and Seattle. I’m encouraged that we have the opportunity locally to join in the same kind of protest that brought millions of people to the steps of the nation’s capitol with Dr. King.” – Francois<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I believe that every single person matters. Our system targets people of color. I want that to change.” – Sydney<\/p>\n\n\n\n
