The Spectacle Puzzle of 5th and Main

The photographs in this online exhibit were taken by Rasaan Burke in Ellensburg, Washington, during the summer and fall of 2020. "Ellensburg Calls to Action," a community group dedicated to ending racism in Ellensburg and to supporting the Black Lives Matter movement, held signs on the corner of 5th Ave. and Main St. for over 4 months or 132 days, throughout rain, heat, cold weather, and the famous "Ellensburg Wind."
