This weekend I went to the demonstration stated above and took photographs. Lately I have been wanting to take photographs in different settings and people, rather than the subjects: family/parade/randomness. This was a great opportunity and I figured I could help the group as well if they could use the photographs for some publicity. They seem to have enjoyed the pictures I took and I volunteered for any future events they may have. I think there is one on May 4th, so I'm looking forward to that (if I go, which I hope I can).
Besides the event I met with my friend to prepare for the Social Justice conference in April, held at UT Pan American. We need to get together soon since it's just about time tune up our presentation.
