    I feel good that we can see turkish women with and without headscarves united. In other countries it’s or, at least in turkey, it’s and.

    Usually there are young/old rural/urban divides, but no one forces the choice.

    That kid was too young to know why everyone was mad, or what the hammer symbolized.

        I’m just a tiny bit disappointed he isn’t holding a teddy bear in his other arm.

    @PugJesus

    That’s the kind of photograph that sends tingles down my spine…

    The angle and framing.

    The expression of the kid.

    The woman just about clap below.

    The proximity of the kid’s feet in sliders to the edge of the wall.

    The impression of height and depth.

    The sense of love, concern, anger and respect radiating from the crowd of women.

    It’s electric!
