I love this & would love to see more people stepping in for the people since "protesting" about inequalities is one thing; doing something is another. This group of invisible people makes me think of homeless camps that are forced to move out by police, via home-owner protests. They force them to pack up & move, citing camps as being "unsightly" but where are they supposed to go? As if they had a home, or money for a hotel! Thank you Mr. Artist.
