Free Gaza- Cape Town Marches

Blessed,

I know the Israel-Palestine conflict is a thorny one.
I am not here to choose sides or point fingers.
I am merely documenting and sharing what I saw yesterday in Cape Town. I happened to be in the right place at the right time with my camera. I also have video footage that I managed to record that I will try and upload later.
If it opens intelligent, solution-oriented discussions? Great.
Arguments? Sorry.


All I'll say is this, actions speak. Watching all these people march was powerful. Marching not in a rowdy, inflamed mob but in a calm, considered, steady stride for something that they want to change. It brought home just a sliver of the realities that those affected are facing and my thoughts are with all those who are afraid, injured, lost and confused, angry and frustrated, helpless and alone. I don't have any answers, just a heart and a camera.
