ABOUT

As a high-profile, public media channel, Landsec's Piccadilly Lights in London has become the "nation’s noticeboard", supporting culture and community, driving conversation and positive change.

Over the summer, the Piccadilly Lights featured The Feelings of Injustice, Misan Harriman's powerful photographic observation of diverse voices, faces and emotions united by pleas to end systemic racism.

Presented by What We Seee (WWS) in association with Landsec, The Feelings of Injustice showcased photographs captured by Misan at Black Lives Matter marches in London, painting a picture of solidarity.

WWS helps people feel the feelings of others: opening minds, and eyes, ears and hearts – and with these photographs sets out to create an enlightening series that transforms how we think about diversity and equality.

The impact, size, location and resolution of Piccadilly Lights was a perfect channel to tell the various stories of how people felt during marches for Black Lives Matter and to mark what would have been Black Pride week. With striking and meaningful stories, the aim is to encourage dialogue, create greater empathy and understanding.

The DOOH showcase opened with a 10 minute compilation featuring more than 120 images of people on marches together with famous quotations and Black Lives Matter messages. They include Roger and his daughter Juno; graphic design artist Chris; the dancer and actress Mette Towley; and England Under-21 hockey player Darcy Bourne who carries a sign asking: “Why is ending racism a debate?”
