A revisit of a shot I took a year ago, during a teacher protest in the downtown Chicago area. Been participating in the @natgeo “Your Shot” assignment. The assignment was to document change, I felt this shot represented that well.
Always an oddly exhilarating thing to witness Chicago’s police force slowly moving down the historic streets of the downtown Chicago area. Just for a second try to imagine all of the historic events that have taken place on these streets, and all of the men and woman who have fought to have their voices heard right here in this very spot. Whether you love or hate the Chicago police force, I was still impressed with their ability to control such a massive crowd of a truly distressed public.

@allieelizabeth2 Thanks Alliee, these protest were a pretty powerful experience. Lots of shifting and moving going on in the city.
This shot is fantastic
@yalinbuyukdora Thanks Yalin! This was one of those times that I will never forget. Being amongst the protest and watching the Chicago police department do their thing was pretty powerful. Wanting to step in and help, but as a photographer, the job is more to stand back and observe and document instead. Thanks again man! ✌️
