Captured on handycam, this raw footage was filmed during the Hands Off protest in downtown Atlanta. I’ve always found protests to be a reminder that we are not alone — that there are people actively fighting for a better world. Being in those crowds fills me with hope. From the powerful energy to the creative signs and undeniable solidarity, it’s a living, breathing form of resistance.

“Protest on Capitol” is a time stamp of where we are as a society, a visual marker of our collective demand for change.
