Annual protest in Hebron for the reopening of Shuhada Street (aparthied street). Shuhada Street lies at the centre of the ancient city of Hebron. For many years it was a busy shopping precinct, full of life. Today it is deserted. When the radical Israeli settler Baruch Goldstein shot dead 29 Palestinian worshippers at Hebron's Ibrahimi mosque in 1994, the Israeli army feared reprisals against three nearby Israeli settlements. It closed off the street to Palestinian vehicles and later Shuhada Street was blocked even for most Palestinian pedestrians.Most of the people who once lived here have left their homes. All the shops have closed, and Palestinians living in the area have to climb over roofs to reach their neighbours. In addition, they suffer violence and harrassment by settlers and soldiers, who often neglect to intervene to protect them from settler violence.
Three Iraq war protestors in front of the White House. I originally posted this in June, 2005, when the American attitude toward Iraq was largely tepid. That attitude has now turned very much against Bush after three more years of no resolution, spiraling casualties, a staggering national debt, and conflicting statements from an administration that views the world as an American playground.

I stumbled upon a large protest against Austria's Freedom Party (FPÖ) in Vienna late at night, showing that many don’t agree with their right-wing populism. I wished I had my Leica M11 instead of an Ilford HP5 loaded M2. But I made it work. #ProtestVienna #wien #PoliticalProtest #FPÖ #Austria #FreedomParty #Activism #Wahl #Nationalratswahl #NRW24 #streetphotography #streetphotographers #LeicaM2 #ilfordhp5 #anaog #analogphotography #monochrome #voitländernokton #28mm #Street

This afternoon I decided to go out and take some photos. Just as I was about to ride out of the city, I looked behind me and saw a large group of people protesting about something. I decided to abandon my initial project for the day and follow the group instead.
From the pamphlets being distributed by the protesters, and word of mouth, I determined that this was essentially a protest about an eviction. There is a house in the centre of Leiden that, for the past 40 years, has been occupied by squatters. During the 40 years they have been there, the building became somewhat of a cultural centre. Just recently, the local Council decided to evict them: and today they peacefully expressed their objection to the Council's proposal.
I started following the protest from the intersection of the Hooigracht and Nieuwe Rijn, and followed them down Nieuwe Rijn to the Herengracht. From the Herengracht, they turned left along Oude Rijn and into the Haarlemmerstraat. From the Haarlemmerstraat, they travelled up to the Prinsessekade and onto the Breestraat. While travelling down the Breestraat, they stopped and made a point outside the Town Hall, before making their way back to Hooglandse Kerkgracht and the building in question.
This was taken right before the group arrived at the steps of the Town Hall on the Breestraat.
Needless to say, I'm glad that I charged my camera and decided to head out... otherwise I would have missed this completely!
Comments are, of course, welcomed!
People protesting against the rise of right-wing movements - among other things.
Slightly blurred, but it's not easy to take a good picture if the crowd marches toward you at quite a speed.
