Do We Really Want Change? Inspired by “The Americans” a portrait series by

What is change without sacrifice?

Social Justice. Gentrification. Climate Change. Education Reform. Public Health. Economic Equity. Immigration. Gun Rights. S*x Trafficking.

When I reflect on these issues, the cynical side of me asks “Is it too late?” Are these problems so large and deeply engrained in our society that addressing them would completely change this country?

Following the COVID-19 pandemic there was this idea around “returning to normal”. Our country was faced with a public health crises the likes of which we have never seen, yet the idea of wearing a mask quickly became a political issue. George Floyd was brutally murdered by police and in the weeks following chants of “Black Lives Matter” rang through the streets of cities across the country. Despite the overwhelming feeling of wanting to create change for this injustice, we barely scratched the surface of addressing the core issues around white supremacy, slavery and black inequality.

Are we ready to sacrifice our time, jobs, money and/or lives? 🤷🏾‍♂️

This country was founded on a revolution by individuals willing to sacrifice everything for their vision of a new world. It’s time for us to re-evaluate what it means to be “American” and what future generations will have to endure based on our actions now. ✊🏾🇺🇸

Building the Army! We’ve had over 200 volunteers sign up from all parts of the city.

Phase 2 - Coming Soon 🗑

Shoutout and for coming out this past Sunday.

“Work Hard, Play Hard” 🌻🗑 The past few weeks have been extremely fulfilling. Between our cleanups to throwing our first COVID-19 event, it’s been inspiring to see people come out and support. For me, just getting out of the house, interacting with people using my skills to provide people a much needed outlet has kept me motivated throughout these crazy times. Just taking a moment to appreciate my amazing team .moon and the homie for capturing the 📸 @ Sunflower Philly

This past Sunday we hosted our 2nd Trash Club clean up at and had over 50 volunteers! I’ve been filled with gratitude and optimism following the responses we’ve received from members of the community.

However, there is still A LOT of work that needs to be done. Unfortunately, Philadelphia’s sanitation workers have been completely taken advantage of amongst the COVID-19 crisis. With more people staying at home, ordering take out/delivery, and shopping online, our already strained trash and recycling system is completely overloaded. Add in the fact the and have not properly addressed safety and health concerns for sanitation workers deemed essential, many have called out and refused to work adding to an already growing problem.

This is the reason we started Trash Club. We can’t rely on the city to solve this issue, it’s going to physically take the community to keep our neighborhoods clean. We all, myself included, need to do better. If you feel inspired to get out and make an impact, join us every other Sunday! 🌻🗑🌻 📸 by
