e toll strike

so this post is long overdue, should've done it ages ago.

so a couple of weeks ago my mate mike comes up to me and says, listen dude I'm gonna go and take photos of the photos of the cosatu strike, do you wanna come with?

at first i was thinking screw that man, but then i decided to throw caution to the wind and go with him.
and i was so happy that i went. it was sick!!!

















now upon getting there i did not know what to expect.
but holy shit it was amazing!! just the feeling of being there, all those people believing and fighting for the same thing. it was crazy, i really don't know how to explain it.
it was crazy, the only whit people there were us, and journalists. now I'm not being racist, but it was a weird feeling, to be brutally honest, i was a little bit scared. now the really crazy thing is, when you are standing there next to the road, the amount of dirty looks you get from the protestors, you can see they are talking about you, until they see, that you have a camera, all they want then, is their photo taken.


the photo above is mike taking photos next to the water cannon truck.

to the right is the one truck with a pa system on it, the truck where julius melema spoke his mind.
