Vertical Movement (1st in a decade), 2016

Related Tactics

Two cotton t-shirts

Vertical Movement reflects on the tragic shooting of Akai Gurley by rookie NYPD officer Peter Liang, Liang’s subsequent trial, and the accompanying protests which revealed splits within the Asian American community as to the definitions and scope of racial justice. As a collective of color, specifically with African American and Asian American members, Related Tactics is invested in unpacking the framing of our communities as structurally in conflict with one another.
