"It's Possible"

While taking a slow exposure during the 24th Martin Luther King Jr. March, two friends walked into the frame and hugged...



Tamala Price hugs longtime friend John Keno Monday at Badger Street and Martin Luther King Drive during the march. Price said she abused crack cocaine for 16 years on that corner, where she lived in a vacant home there until being evicted ten years ago.

"It's possible," she said. "It really is possible."
