hey guys! here’s some fun things i learned from this article about Dion Diamond:
he did these sit-ins by himself. like idk about you, but i always thought of sit-ins as organized by groups, what kind of bravery does it take, man
he didn’t tell anyone about it, like he was no glory-seeker about this. his parents didn’t even know until reporters started calling them up like “hey, did you know your son is in jail?
when someone called the cops he’d skedaddle out the back door although he was sent to prison multiple times
the last time he got arrested was in Baton Rouge, and the cops were so sick of him that they told inmates they’d put in a good word for anyone who gave Diamond a hard time. (the inmates didn’t take the bait.)

I never just go into a pasture if there is a fence. So it was very nice that an old farmer who saw me photographing cows invited me to walk with him on his land while he was counting his herd.
After a walk and a pleasant conversation he left. It was okay that I stayed for a while to watch the sunset with his cows.
What a kind man. What a satisfying evening.
i thot this was hony and the cow was being interviewed
