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.
This is likely a re-post, but I thought it interesting enough to put in a description.
This is a protest in the heart of Vienna. The subject is a rather interesting pre-European Mexican headdress that was legendarily worn by Montezuma himself (although science has since called that claim into doubt).
Austria has the headdress here in Vienna -- one of only 3 or so remaining examples of such feather work left in the world. Mexico certainly wants it back, as the sign above the van reads "give us back what belongs to us!"
Below, the sign says "Mexcio was against the invasion (used to say annexation) of Austria in 1938. Did you already forget?
This references the fact that one of the first and only letters of protest about the annexation of Austria by Hitler was registered from Mexico -- something Mexico is very proud of and many Austrians are very appreciative of.
Anyway, it's interesting... long history, long entwined cultures -- don't forget: an Austrian noble was once Emperor of Mexico!
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
