“War is an ugly thing,” said Mike Miles of Luck, Wisconsin, “and many people get displaced as a result. We've displaced ourselves to be part of this effort.”
So goes the opening paragraph of the newest collaborative creation between patspen, my oldest friend, and myself.
The above story chronicles the Racine visit of the Walkers - a protest group marching from Chicago to St. Paul for the RNC. Sponsored by Voices for Creative Nonviolence, the group is made up of a few permanent marchers (pictured) and countless people who join from town to town and just make it as far as the next stop.
Patspen and I are planning a trip to the Republican National Convention to cover the protests and counter protests - she'll be the writer and I the photographer. A lot of what we get will end up here and a bit more will end up on NowPublic.com as well as on my other blog, which is fed by my stuff from NowPublic.
You can get a taste of what we'll be doing by checking the link on the article above - that'll take you to the entire story in NowPublic. Click on the picture above to see all six shots from the walkers gig at Racine's Siena Center.
Enjoy.
