Unity March for Democracy

Unity March for Democracy at Santa Monica Pier, Saturday, May 29, 2021. The march was led by MY4D to show their support for the anti-coup movement in Myanmar. On February 1, 2021, the Burmese military forcibly detained our democratically elected leaders. Since then, it has terrorized protestors in Myanmar with unlawful arrests, beatings, and murders, including hundreds of people, including children. #MyanmarYouthForDemocracy #SaveMyanmar #UnityMarch #DemocracyForMyanmar #whatshappeninginmyanmar 📷 @fabianlewkowicz

Grand Central Market

A walk through Grand Central Market, Friday, May 28, 2021. Grand Central Market is a downtown landmark since 1917 with over 30 vendors. When the doors first opened in October 1917, the "Wonder Market," as it was then called, was billed as "the largest and finest public market on the Pacific Coast." It filled the entire ground floor of the Beaux-Arts-style Homer Laughlin Building, the region's first steel-reinforced, fireproof structure. At the time, Los Angeles was the country's tenth-most-populous city—and downtown was the epicenter of a flourishing metropolis. Today, the Market's 40 stalls are home to an only-in-LA blend of legacy vendors like China Cafe and Roast To Go (Grand Central Market tenants for over half a century), rising stars, and success stories from the city's buzzing food scene. The Market is a microcosm of the historic immigrant communities that have shaped Los Angeles and a mosaic of the creativity and vision of the people who call this city home. Monday through Sunday: 8am - 9pm, 317 S. Broadway, Los Angeles, CA 90013
