    Occupy Wall Street, October 2011. Here are a collection of photographs of some protest signs from the early days of the Occupy movement’s rallying in lower Manhattan. Photos taken and submitted by Noran Elzarka. 

    Check out more of her photography on Flickr!

    You can view the rest of The Political Notebook’s project to gather photography, documentation and experiences from the OWS movements nationwide. I have also compiled an archive of all my posted submissions to this project on a single Pinterest board for your viewing convenience. Check out the Call for Submissions page and email your photos to me at torierosedeghett@gmail.com!

    Thanks to all the members of our Occupy Together Flickr group too, who have been documenting the movement over the past year. Some new shots from action days on Saturday 12 May have been added from Berlin, Montreal and Brussels.

Gaza Strip: Palestinian refugee Ismail Eid, 95, holds a key symbolising the homes left by Palestinians in 1948 as he walks in the Rafah refugee camp, two days before Palestinians mark the Nakba (Catastrophe), which commemorates the expulsion or flight of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians from Palestine after the 1948 war with Israel

    Anders Petersen’s Soho 
The seedy streets that Anders Petersen walked in the 70s had been transformed when he returned last year. But his new images – which have all the graininess and character of another age – pick out the messy human heart that beats beneath the gloss
