      <image:caption>Serena Williams is seen with her poster at the March for Our Lives Rally on Saturday, March 24, 2018. She had this to say, “I’m here because this has always been something very important to me. My dad is actually from England, and I work in International Affairs and it’s just completely unfathomable to me the way that this country cannot wake. And to see something that is so… it should be so clear. It should be easier than this. And I’m not optimistic for change at the same time. I think we have a duty to be here, and to make our voices heard. So that’s why I’m here.” March For Our Lives is a student-led movement to end gun violence in the United States. Hundreds of thousands of people took to the streets of Washington, DC to demand that peoples’ lives and safety become a priority and to put an end to gun violence in communities and schools immediately. Over 800 sibling marches took place across the U.S. and internationally. © Carla Cioffi</image:caption>

When asked why she was attending the march she said, “I’m here to continue to make a change, to fight for our rights as human beings. To fight for Unchi Maka, Grandmother Earth. She has a voice, and we are her human voice. We have to continue because she has a spirit, just like our water, our plants. Everybody has a spirit. Everything has a spirit on this land. And we have to remember that, and those spirits are what goes in to our bodies whether it be food or water.” The Peoples Climate March took place on the 100th day of Donald Trump’s presidency. Marchers surrounded the White House in a silent sit-in to recognize the damage caused by the Trump administration over the last 100 days. © Carla Cioffi</image:caption>

After the flag was folded Wes walked up to me and shared the following, “I was a plaintiff from Arkansas. I was on the the Supreme Court steps the day of the hearing, and on the steps the day of the ruling.” He is referring to the Supreme Court ruling of Obergefell v. Hodges on marriage equality. When asked why he was there at the march and rally he said, “Because equality. I was actually the first plaintiff to get a divorce. And so I’m talking for don’t stay in an abusive marriage. If you have trouble, even though you’re gay, you can start over. I’m 55 and my husband ran off with a man 15 years younger, and I thought my world was over. And I turned it around!” Wes also shared that he’s a certified cowboy. The Equality March for Unity &amp; Pride is a grassroots movement which seeks to mobilize the diverse LGBTQ+ communities to peacefully and clearly address concerns about the current political landscapes and how it is contributing to the persecution and discrimination of LGBTQ+ individuals. © Carla Cioffi</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Becky, from Maryland, chants in protest at the March for Truth DC rally held on the National Mall on Saturday, June 3, 2017 in Washington, DC. When asked why she attended the protest she said, “I’m in support of this because I’m not in support of him. Or the GOP. They’re traitors.” This was Becky’s first protest. The aim of the protest is to raise the voices of the people and let elected leaders know that Americans want answers. Collectively people rise together and call for a fair and impartial investigation, for the pursuit of truth, and for the restoration of faith in the electoral system and the Office of the Presidency. The goals of the protest are four-fold: An independent commission must be established, and Congressional investigations should be properly resourced and pursued free of partisan interests; As much information should be made available to the public as possible, and as soon as possible; Congress should require Donald Trump to release his tax returns to clarify his business interests and obligations to any foreign entity; If crimes were committed or if collusion is discovered, it must be prosecuted. © Carla Cioffi</image:caption>

      <image:caption>David Barrows of Washington, DC is seen in front of the White House at an emergency rally wearing a Trump mask on Thursday, June 1, 2017. When asked what he was doing there he said, “I’m here to try to do what I can to save our planet from their plans of destruction. There’s no way the planet is going to survive all this greed and war, all these bombs falling, all this exploitation of tar sands, all the ruination of Indian lands and all the rest of it. So it’s up to the people to stand up to tyrannical government. We have a better chance here than anybody else, so we need to do it.” Two hours after Trump announced the US withdrawal from the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, people gathered at the White House for an emergency rally to protest this decision. The Paris Agreement was signed by 196 countries. The US, along with Nicaragua and Syria, did not sign. Climate change is considered by many the planets’ biggest issue with frontline communities being the most affected. Frontline communities are the poor, communities of color and Indigenous people. © Carla Cioffi</image:caption>

One year ago Unite the Right held a deadly rally in Charlottesville, VA where a young woman, Heather Heyer, was killed and scores were injured. During a lull in the march to the White House from Freedom Plaza I asked Mr. Viro for a statement, which he did not offer in that moment. He called me later and left me a voicemail saying the following: “You wanted a statement. Sorry, I was putting out medicine. Drumming out is medicine, putting out vibrations, making sure we can push out the hate by playing love. That’s what I was concentrating on. In words, what we were doing was we were holding space for Heather Heyer and all the victims who suffered from all the Nazis bashing people’s heads last year in Charlottesville. And we were not going to let that pass on the anniversary here in Washington, DC. We were going to hold that space with love and we were going to push out all the vibrations for good energy and love with our music and with our medicine for championing against hate. Thank you for being out there today. You too have medicine also for doing your photojournalism.” This is probably one of the best voicemails I have ever received. © Carla Cioffi</image:caption>

Just the un-presidential nature of his administration and… I could go on. You can look up what he’s done. Everyone knows. So, yeah, that’s why I’m here. And it’s Independence Day, so I thought it was an appropriate time to be out here.” Participants in the July 4th Flash Mob sang “Do You Hear The People Sing” from Les Miserable as a reminder to Trump that every day the resistance grows stronger, and that the people demand his impeachment. © Carla Cioffi</image:caption>

And I think the important thing is that we have to protect the First Amendment rights to be out here, so when we have a propaganda that labels us as not peaceful, this is a tactic that we’ve seen before and we do the same thing we did then, which is to stand peacefully and say who we are. Right? So we’re doing that. Also there is a problem in the country with the Second Amendment not being applied equally to black and brown folks. And we would like the NRA, if they are the organization that they say they are, to actually stand up for the rights of lawfully owning gun owners who are black and brown. So this is also about Philando Castile, which brings us to a larger issue. These are the intersectional issues that we’re looking at where race and equality and women’s rights, they’re all tied together. … And so if we can’t stand and resist this government peacefully then we don’t have first amendment rights. If we don’t have first amendment rights, you don’t have second amendment rights. And if we don’t have fourteenth amendment rights what are we here for? So that’s why I’m here.” The Women’s March from #NRA2DOJ is a demonstration against the NRA taking no action in response to the Philando Castile trial verdict. Following the rally demonstrators marched 18 miles from the NRA to the Department of Justice in Washington, DC. © Carla Cioffi</image:caption>

The following is what she had to say on why she was at this event: “It is such a profoundly deep place for me. I am so enraged at the lack of decency. I am so enraged at the man and people in the White House. And now especially we’re here because of lax gun laws. And it is insane and makes no sense. I come with my bull horn because literally can’t help myself. I am just kind of driven to exercising my right to say this is not right. The Brady Bill should have been passed decades ago. Ninety-one people a day are killed with a gun. Dear gun owners we’re not trying to confiscate your guns, even though Donny said that in the campaign. He said, ‘they are trying to take away your guns.’ Sorry, we’re not doing that. We just want to register people. And just wondering why you think you need machine guns, AKs whatever they are, not sure why we need that for hunting and practicing. So that’s my story. I am enraged very deep down inside of me.” © Carla Cioffi</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Karen Dunnam, “The Grand Rapids Tuba Lady” of Grand Rapids, MI is seen playing her tuba on the front line of the counter protestors against the Unite the Right 2 rally in Washington, DC on Sunday, August 12, 2018. “I’m here for the third or fourth time in DC to participate in a protest against 45, and the insults and outrage he has brought against our great country. I came here for the weekend. I was working on a political campaign, and my candidate did not prevail so now I have a lot more spare time. So I’m now taking a well-deserved vacation. I usually take weekend trips and day trips, go places and what-not, and I haven’t done that. I’ve been sitting at my desk typing and working on the campaign. So here I am with this beautiful view of the Capitol that he’s (her candidate) not gonna get to go to, and this beautiful view of 45’s hotel and the beautiful view down at Lafayette Park and this beautiful view of all these protestors. It’s just fabulous. This is what democracy looks like.” © Carla Cioffi</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A woman is seen with her sign at the counter protest to the Unite the Right 2 rally in Washington, DC on Sunday, August 12, 2018. She did not want to offer her name or share why she was there, which I respect. Her sign says it all. We chatted for a bit as she held my arm gently and lovingly - she radiated hope. Her essence was touching and beautiful. © Carla Cioffi</image:caption>
