Demonstrator Holds "Not Your Target" Sign at Kum Nam Kim Demonstration
Description
In the foreground, a protestor holds up a sign that reads "Not Your Target" at a CAAAV demonstration held in front of the 20th precinct to demand justice and police accountability for Kum Nam Kim—a Korean street vendor on the Upper West Side who was brutalized and arrested by police on August 3, 1993, after protesting an unfair parking ticket.[1] On the right side of the frame, a line of demonstrators march with their backs turned towards the photographer, facing in the direction of two indistinguishable police officers idling around a van.
