I spent some of the best 4 years of my life at Berkeley where I fell in love with the environment, the food, and the campus vibe. And of course Berkeley wouldn’t be Berkeley without the spirit of free speech and civil rights. In the 1960s, the campus was a perfect microcosm of the free speech movement, and I was happy to see the same enthusiasm alive during my visit to campus. I was on campus for an engagement shoot when I ran into these students protesting racist acts at UCSD. The students were all dressed in back in a large group gathered right under Sather Gate. Their protest was silent yet anything but unheard.
I only had a chance to snap a couple of pictures, as I needed to meet up with my engagement shoot couple, but here they are. For more information on the protest, here is a news article on the event.
Shoot Location: University of California, Berkeley
