Description:
Participate for a common cause relates to the 2019 digital photography theme "Participate." I photographed this rain pouring march on January 14, 2019, the first walkout since 1989 by the United Teachers of Los Angeles.
It has been 30 years since over ten of thousands teachers participated in the memorable march on issues beyond salary increases namely; class size, standardized testing reduction, counseling, health and human service,and teacher positions. The picture gives a meaningful message and hope to the people who participated in the march because as the saying goes "there is always light at the end of the tunnel."
