Protestors

Over the years, I have posted a fair number of shots of protests, marches and blockades here in Oaxaca.  I have much admiration for how involved and active people are here and have often commented on the fact that these sorts of things do not happen that often in El Norte, more of late, but still not enough.

However....... one of my favorite websites is BagNewsNotes, where they analyze the photos and images the media feeds us.  They also have their own photographers covering the world and one of the best is Alan Chin.
Please check out his work from the Occupy Wall Street protests in NYC.  As the media continues to basically ignore the story, it still has legs.  There is still hope that protests will grow and the coverage will follow.

As someone once said, "Keep hope alive."

Oh wait..... shiny object, Michael Jackson's doctor, Chasz Bono, Nancy Grace's .....
