I was going home from a photo gig when I got to the Federal Building in Los Angeles, CA, and saw all the Protesters lined Veteran Ave and Wilshire Blvd shouting slogans in English and Persian and also horns from supportive motorists echo throughout the avenue. I had to stop and get some photos. This is my first protest that I got photographed.
The solidarity and synergy in the crowd was amazing. I had older men pulling me to shrines for the woman named Neda Agha Soltan who was senselessly killed by the violence in Tehran.
I was exciting and a bit surreal at the same time.
