Tree There are places I’ll remember All my life though some have changed poster

Valencia Burse, one of the few non-security people standing outside a downtown hotel on Black Lives Matter Plaza, was also struck by the heavily-policed, surreal no-man’s-land on this, her first visit to Washington, D.C., combined with the city-wide masking and other strictures of the pandemic. “COVID makes things feel a little heavy,” she says. She’d come from Atlanta with her sister, Kim Burse, musical director for Jennifer Lopez, who performed at the Inauguration ceremony.

But that didn’t take away from the excitement of witnessing the swearing in of the first Black and South Asian Vice President Kamala Harris, “someone that we can look at, that has our color…that represents us. That’s absolutely amazing,” she says, especially for her 7-year-old daughter Payton back home in Georgia. “It’s cool to know that she can look at somebody that looks like her.”

Closer to the Capitol by Union Station, a handful of anti-abortion activists—frequent flyers at D.C. Public events—were waving well-worn signs and engaging passersby with bullhorn blasts of abuse. “What country are you from?” Ruben Israel of Official Street Preachers, who is white, bellowed at a group of young men of color. “Did you vote one time or two times?” He said Trump is still his President, before turning to debate whether homosexuality is a sin with Salana Reed, a long-haired Black woman sporting a Biden-Harris Inauguration pin on her black blazer. “The Lord would never be standing out here calling people homosexuals,” in such a derogatory way, a furious Reed pushed back. “He don’t get down like that. He’s a gentleman.”
