Juneteenth 2011


This is the shot that ran in the Sunday Manhattan Mercury with a story on Juneteenth. Juneteenth is a festival that celebrates black independence marking the day the South discovered slavery had been made illegal. Every year there is a Gospel fest, a parade, and several booths of vendors and phenomenal BBQ. This shot is of the Kansas City Marching Falcons during the parade on 11th St, the guy in the foreground, Charles Sanders, is doing a backflip.
