Why the Streets Are Still Full

12 June 2020.

Beginning in Cal Anderson Park and descending upon Madison Park in Seattle, participants of the walk made clear their desires for the future.

My mission was to listen, learn, and to visually share some messages with you. You can view those messages below.

I made my way across the street from the park, quietly and steadily the chant of “one team, one voice, one message” would ripple through the crowd…

I’ll leave you with Seattle’s Jason Beverly talking to the Capitol Hill Seattle Blog about the day’s walk who says,

“It’s very important that if you say ‘black lives matter’ that action follows. White, affluent people are absolutely in a position where they can step up. You can talk to equity boards in your company, you can ask for funds or donations, you can step up for the African American communities. There hasn’t been that response yet. Action, action, action. We need action. Step into your companies and make action. Step into your communities and take action. Have those hard conversations and stand up for your morals.”
