Princess Hijab – One of the best uses of photography I have seen for a long time.

Politics, race, feminism and religion all in one photographic package.

Well done to Angelique Chrisafis at the Guardian in the UK for this amazing piece.

Video just does not capture the transient nature of this protest. Fleeting as her moments are, documenting this using photography perfectly captures this lack of permanence perfectly as the establishment fights the marginalised. Maybe that is why I love this so much!

Read the great simple captions. Congratulations to the artist working to bring the subject out from an insider’s perspective with none of the sensationalism from having to document it from an outsiders perspective. Massive respect.
