I’ve been back in the States for only a few days and it’s been a little rough. There have been a couple of black men killed by police since I landed, and on Friday here in Dallas, a sniper killed 5 police and wounded 6 more during a protest march in retaliation of the killings.
Saturday morning I was to meet some friends at the Dallas Museum of Art. Many of the streets were blocked off for memorial services. Beyond that, downtown Dallas was a ghost town.
The whole country is in mourning and we are feeling it here in Texas especially hard. Everywhere flags are at half mast out of respect. I drew this picture of the square in Athens while I waited on someone.
