Photo essay: The Free Palestine protest in London:
“I wanted to take part in this protest, and to document it, to show my support and raise awareness for the Palestinian cause because of my family heritage. I’m worried for them, because of the suffering and injustice taking place there, and would like for them to be able to live in peace. I wanted to be able to contribute in some way with the skills that I have.”“The protest itself was huge and lively – it started at Marble Arch and ended in front of the Israeli Embassy.
Although when I say peaceful, it doesn’t mean that it wasn’t emotional – people were angry, they were sad and fed up, demanding justice, demanding peace, and for the oppression to stop. Some people were dancing, some people were singing, the crowd was screaming ‘free, free Palestine,’ and ‘what do we want? Justice! When do we want it? Now!’”“I wish people would educate themselves, not through mass media but directly through people who are there on the field.
