Unrest

Unrest is about the 1992 Los Angeles Uprising after the Rodney King trial. Touching on topics about inequality, police brutality, and rebellion. The importance of this piece is seeing how these topics echo the current political climate.

The publication is a compilation of images and articles that have been curated to capture multiple lenses of those affected by the uprising. The end of the book bring things full circle by showing that we are still dealing with the same issues that were being addressed 28 years ago.

The video piece is a comparison of a domestic household to live footage of the Uprising outbreak.
