celebrates the March
on Washington
Taking place on August 28 1963 and climaxing with Dr
Martin Luther King’s epochal I Have A Dream speech,
the biggest political event ever mobilised by African-
Americans saw 250,000 people including Harry
Belafonte, Marlon Brando, Judy Garland and Sammy
Davis, Jr march on Washington to demand change
in America – an event that can’t help but resonate
today amid the Black Lives Matter movement.
In remembrance and solidarity, American
photographer Larry Fink and London gallery David
Hill have released a charity edition print of Fink’s
iconic image Many Shades of Concern – 100 per cent
of proceeds from sales will go to social justice group
the Until Freedom Organisation.
Prices from £100, contact david@davidhillgallery.

The government are being
urged to extend parental
leave by three months in
the wake of the coronavirus

many new parents facing
mounting debts, childcare issues and mental health
problems, more than 270,000 people have now
signed two separate petitions urging the Tories to
take action. Put your name to one of them (or both)
now to ramp up the pressure on Number 10.

acclaimed 2019 album Hyperspace, utilising visuals from actual
space missions re-rendered in trippy, hyper-real ways through
revolutionary AI techniques. You can watch the full thing for
