Yesterday I received news that I lost a friend I’ve known on and off since I was a teenager in Los Angeles.
We all lost Joan Kramer, a teacher, librarian, advocate, activist, photographer of her beloved Silverlake, daughter of radicals, opponent of injustice.
As just one sign off Joan’s influence, her Facebook page has hundreds of comments on her passing this morning.
Reblogged this on Poetic Justice and commented:

Thank you Fred Klonsky for your picture.
We are all in mourning. But she would want us to continue the fight – relentlessly.
