OUR LONG WALK HOME

Our Long Walk Home was a symbolic walk on Emancipation Day, Saturday August 1st 2020, with the goal of encouraging people to join, participate, and contribute to the campaign of reclaiming and rebuilding the Negro Community Center (NCC), Montreal’s oldest Black community center.

The event was hosted by Revive NCC, DESTA Black Youth Network, Coalition de la Petite-Bourgogne / Quartier en santé, Cote Des Neiges Black Community Association.

Thank you to all the beautiful souls that permitted me to show support and walk by their side and to photograph them during a very important event.

Poolside – Kodak Portra 400

A selection of photos which I shot yesterday following a heavy thunderstorm. I’m still learning how to use the Rolleiflex SL66 and finding out that it has some issues that need fixing. Several shots didn’t turn out, but I can still appreciate the oneiric quality of the darker ones. My visit to this hidden spot was in-part a location scouting assignment for a film which I have been intermittently scripting for nearly a decade.
