this morning i participated in the london demonstrations in support of burma.

there is nothing so moving to me as being part of a show of numbers, taking to the streets in force, demanding attention from the government on behalf of a cause you feel in your bones to be right. to be passionate and vocal and strident, and to be surrounded by others who feel the same.

it’s a beautiful thing.

a few photos (though it is difficult to march and snap pics at the same time!)
