Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.
It's all patched up now, probably nothing to worry about. π«£ π«£ π«£

Screenshot of article excerpt: The Education Department also was concerned about other words in the application, said Adrian Klenz, who works with deafblind adults in the state. He said he has talked with state officials about the discontinuation of the grant. βI was told that apparently the administration is going through past grants and two words were flagged: One was transition and one was privilege,β Klenz said. βTransition β transitioning from childhood to adulthood. Privilege came up because a parent wrote a glowing review of staff that said what a privilege it was to work with them.β ProPublica obtained a copy of the grant application and confirmed that those words were included.
The Dept. of Education has pulled funding for programs in 8 states that support students with both hearing and vision loss.
A staffer at one program says he was told the Trump admin. took issue with 2 words on the grant application: βtransition" and βprivilege": www.propublica.org/article/trum...
