People at the University of Rochester walk the patch of grass on Eastman Quadrangle where the pro-Palestine encampment stood earlier that day, on May 14, 2024, in Rochester, NY. The encampment was present on campus for 22 days. After roughly 200 days of war in Gaza following the Oct. 7, 2023, attacks on Israel, student organizers at the University of Rochester established a pro-Palestinian encampment. The students demanded that their administrators call for a ceasefire and divest from Israeli institutions. I began photographing the first day that the encampment was established. Over the next year, I would continue this work, taking a character-driven approach to a story that is often mischaracterized and sensationalized.
