Ok a couple years ago, I went to NYC to photograph the Down Syndrome Buddy Walk. I heard Chris 'Corky' Burke was going to be there with his band, so I had to go.
So here I am with over 3000 attendees, raising awareness for a great cause. About an hour into the event- the band has some kids come up on stage. They talk about sign language and start to teach the kids the sign for 'I love you'. All of the sudden- this kid in the front row on the stage, with 1000's or onlookers decides to do his own thing.
Gasps from the crowd, tears rolling down my face, a quick look to my left and his family is in shock.
They say a picture can tell a thousand words, well I can think of 2 right off the bat.
Now this kid is a True Rebel
