Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

I visited my old high school, which was the former McKinley High school back in the day. Here are some yearbook photos of inside & out the school during 1928.

It’s easy to think that schools in Minneapolis are closed because the Feds murdered someone in the street but no, the actual reason is that while that was happening, the Feds were busy doing other heinous shit across the city like tear-gassing a school
“The move came after officials at Roosevelt High School said armed U.S. Border Patrol officers came on school property during dismissal Wednesday and began tackling people, handcuffed two staff members and released chemical weapons on bystanders.” — www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...
Minneapolis schools cancel classes after Border Patrol clash disrupts dismissal at Roosevelt

Sometime in July of 2008, my dad took my sister and I into this groomers, once a pet shop. We were looking for a dog only for my sister to find a blonde puppy in between all Yorkies. That little blonde puppy became our 3rd sister. In a few days, it will be 5 years since she passed. I miss you Lizzy🤍

A flock of monk parakeets flew by me in Burbank. Its so crazy to see these guys fly around when there's one INSIDE my house. I can only imagine the terror these guys bring to the neighbors.

People all over the country need to understand that federal agents are not in Chicago to prevent violence – they're in Chicago to cause violence.
(from the inbox) Less than an hour later this morning, just before 10:30 at Roscoe and Harding, feds again released gas as they were driving away, unobstructed, from a relatively small number of neighbors.

A friend recently told me that they didn’t think ICE would deploy tear gas in well to do neighborhoods with a high density of white people. I understood their thinking, but disagreed. Today, they gassed Lakeview. Nothing is off limits to these people.

Hi, just a note—
The local ICE/ERO agent directing his team to fire at reporters' faces in Chicago this morning has been threatening press since we showed up at immigration court in June. His agents shot us both at close range last week, too. None of this started today!

I got to visit the CHM and had a chance to see the Emmett Till exhibit. It was a beautiful exhibit and taking it all in was emotional. It was hard to hold back tears but also harder to hold back the anger I felt. Seeing how awful this country has always been and still repeating a vicious cycle.
