March 7, 2026 Vancouver, Canada
I shot this event because I used to cover political protests as a journalist in New York for my regular column, called “Trouble Shooter” in Resource Magazine (RIP, sold off and gone). I miss that world. I miss documenting things. With everything in heavy turmoil now, I feel the need to cover it again.

I try to show events without pretending I’m some robot with no opinions. Everyone has bias, but I do my best to visually capture the spirit of what actually happened from a journalistic point of view, an activist point of view and an anthropological point of view. Messy, human, real. I don’t want to just sit here and be a keyboard warrior. I want to be there. I want to know.

Going today lit a fire in me that’s been out for years. Feels good.

The fact that another major world war is likely starting and if it goes too far, there are no winners.

To quote my favourite war photographer, James Nachtwey - “I want my pictures to cut through political abstractions… and make a connection on a human level. There is a job to be done…to record the truth. I want to wake people up!”
