Bristol Protests
Bristol is a vibrant multi-cultural city and the fourth largest in Britain. Mayor Marvin Rees quoted "There is a long history of protest in Bristol and a radical self-identify is more prevalent here, but why Bristol and not other cities is a difficult point. "Bristol has always been a city of protest with an alternative identity that pushes back on those mainstream or established narratives. "Protest is very richly woven into the city's history and I think the people of Bristol today are influenced by that narrative of protest." I live not far from the City and love taking street photographs there and occasionally at the same time a demonstration or protest is taking place, sometimes significant, sometimes small, but always passionate. Over time I hope to document more and more events.
