Description

Turkish and American flags wave at a parade I came across on my way home from the Mumia Abu-Jamal protest (see Voice of the Voiceless). While diplomatic tensions between our two countries have calmed (as far as the media-blinded American public is concerned), I think this photo holds a poignant message about relative perspectives and how quick we are to shut ourselves off from understanding those of others, when in reality, we are so painfully uninformed and are only doing ourselves a great disservice by shutting our eyes and ears from those sitting at the end of the negotiation table.
