#colectiv
Anti corruption protests following the fire in Colectiv Club, where 60 people lost their lives.
The centre sign reads: "When they come out of the hospital, I want them to find a better Romania"
The sign on the right reads: "We won't become brothers with the devil no more. We'll learn how to swim!" The sign makes an allusion to a Romanian saying that literally translates to "i will become brother to the devil until i cross the river".

On MLK Jr. Day, Monday, January 20 at 5:00 PM, in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy, over a dozen progressive community organizations from across Philadelphia descended on City Hall at the Catto Statue as a show of solidarity with the struggle for Black liberation and self-determination. Supporting organizations noted the inauguration of Donald Trump also occurred on that day and took a stand against the white supremacist, imperialist and misogynist system that he is the latest representative of. The Philadelphia Anti-Imperialist Alliance calls for a world transformation that does not rely on oppression and imperialism.
At City Hall, the crowd of over 250 people braved frigid temperatures to hear speakers from Workers World Party, Philadelphia Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression and the
Students for Justice in Palestine Coalition.
The march paused at 11th and Market to listen to speakers from the Save Chinatown Coalition and Health Care Workers for Palestine.
The march ended at 5th and Market, where Anakbayan, Friends of Congo and Industrial Workers of the World also spoke.
The assassination of Dr. King in 1968 as he organized sanitation workers in Memphis, Tennessee, was a naked act of state violence aimed at preventing his revolutionary work of uniting poor and working people in support of Black liberation. His lifetime fight against what he called the “triple evils” of U.S. racism, economic exploitation, and militarism is one we continue today. Rather than recite quotes in an empty attempt to show solidarity, we call upon all to join together against inhumane immigration policies, in support of health care as a human right, call out those who want to undermine Black history, call out those who erode voting rights, demand the resources we need to solve our climate crisis and end U.S. imperialism that makes us all less safe.
We are more than a year into the brutal U.S./Israeli-led genocide in Palestine and hundreds of years into the existence of the U.S. empire that Dr. King understood to be the “greatest purveyor of violence in the world today.” Regardless of which party sits in the white people’s house in Washington DC., we understand that local and international repression and violence will continue unabated unless we unite and organize.
The struggle against imperialism must continue until all colonized and oppressed people are free! Until all political prisoners are at home! Until all occupied lands–from Lenapehoking and Palestine to Sudan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo to Puerto Rico, Haiti to the Philippines–are returned! Until all people have access to the basic human rights of housing, food, clean water, free healthcare and education!

I took this series of photographs at an anti war demonstration held in March in Trafalgar Square. There were two particularly prominent protesters, who used a megaphone to berate the passing crowd and advise against payment of illegal taxes. They were incredibly interesting subjects to photograph and clearly believed wholeheartedly in the cause they were demonstrating for. If my memory serves me well at the time of taking this photograph the man was advising everyone not to go home and to get arrested.
