Demonstrators march around the White House to mark the anniversary of Trump’s second inauguration. The march, sponsored by @thirdactva.bsky.social, @thirdactmd.bsky.social, and @thirdactdc.bsky.social (that's a lot of acting!) was one of many #freeamerica walkouts around the area.

Over the holidays I talked with people waiving signs (and praying and even meditating) on street corners around DC, Baltimore and Chicago, asking them why they did it. The result is a documentary short, Highly Visible, viewable at vimeo.com/1149684421. Not a bad way to spend the break!

At the same time there was so much attention focused on food insecurity this fall I was asked to produce videos for two separate food distribution programs. One was quite large (feeding ~7,000 monthly) and one (in the video) is small, but both showed food insecurity continues in the DMV.

Hundreds showed up for the "No Kings" rally in Riverdale, Maryland, today, with the Rapid Response choir singing a #WoodieGuthrie song. #riverdale #maryland #NoKings #NoKingsInAmerica @indivisiblepgc.bsky.social @rapidresponsechoir.bsky.social @SSPAction1 @IndivisibleRt1Corridor
