Many of us choose the safety of inaction over the danger of taking a stand. No matter what the issue is, these series of photography document individuals who are able to demonstrate their strong support and ability to stand up. The use of black and white photographs adds to the realism and evokes emotion. It is hoped that the demonstrated complexities, meanings and other nuances in these photographs will convey a message to the viewer.
