SPIRIT OF TURKEY’S GEZI UPRISING by Tamer Tamar
On May 31, 2013, hundreds of thousands of Turks flooded Istanbul’s Taksim Square to defend the soon to be demolished Gezi Park while taking a stance against police brutality and ongoing political turmoil. Little that they knew, they were on the road to transforming Turkey’s political and social landscape. Gezi Park protests represented a turning point in my home country, and it was a natural desire on my part to witness and document this momentous event. I leave this hardcover photo book as a legacy of resistance not only for younger Turks, but also for everyone who could use some strength and hope amidst the chaotic times in which we live.
