Banksy Gaza Hamas; Palestinian PR Pop - Street I Am

No Women, LGBT, ethnic minorities considered in Gaza installation  –

The recent Banksy Gaza Hamas Installation in Gaza, is getting the
full political ruling class PR treatment, courtesy of big media’s

hypocritically correct?

The hard left genius Banksy, worked a
deal with the terrorist crew of Hamas to enter Gaza through a series of
secret tunnels, allegedly without anyone knowing about it.

Hillary Clinton Street Art Good Bad & Ugly - Street I Am

Hillary Clinton Street Art Pro and Con

As regular readers of Street I Am know, one of the things we have
observed is how a careful look at stree art can be an indication of
things to come. In Egypt for example after the Arab spring, a look at
the street art going upon Cairo walls left no doubt that Mohamed Morsi
was not well liked. A quick Google search today reveals the same about
Hillary in the US.

May Day street events feature violence & hate - Street I Am

May Day street events feature violence & hate - Street I Am

Healthy street culture, Society’s antidote for extinction –

Healthy street culture needs to be allowed to be expressed without
threats or violence. However May Day leaders dedication to tolerance and
openness was called into question by their critics, as they and their
lieutenants, rallied the dependent class on the streets of our planet,
to protest free markets.


Unions and masked labor activists take to the streets with petrol bombs to fight free markets on May Day

Police fired tear gas at May Day demonstrators in Milan
protesting against the Expo, a global fair meant to show the best of
Italy. Thousands of violent protesters started fires and fought police
officers on the streets of Turkey’s largest city Istanbul. 12 people
were arrested for ‘assaulting police’ in Seoul. […]

Theme Park Public Art fight in Turkey

The Ankara statue spat in Turkey seems to be a struggle for cultural
identity as much as a matter of taste. The politics of culture found a
worthy venue in a new theme park which has not even been built yet. 
However the conservatives of Ankara think the park idea is unnecessary
and wasteful.

David Blaine has a heart and we were inspired by this article to find three videos of him in Baltimore.


There’s not much uplifting to say about the events that have
followed the arrest and death of Freddie Gray in Baltimore. Rage,
distrust, riots, looting — and no answers yet as to how the 25-year-old
West Baltimore resident suffered a fatal spinal injury in police custody
April 19. But […]He canā€™t make Baltimoreā€™s problems disappear ā€“but magician David Blaine lightened the mood a little bit

Civil Rights vs the Mob in USA - Street I Am

Freddie Gray protest in Baltimore erupts

Civil rights remain under attack as incriminating evidence against
the police continues to raise uncertainty.  After 17 days, obvious
questions remain unanswered by the authorities in Baltimore. As a
result, protesters, agitators and thugs mixed in frustration,
opportunism and the quest for political power to foment a boiling
cauldron of violence last night.

Street Art a pansy could love.

Can a pansy change your life and ease transportation woes? This
totally original idea seems to be working that way. At least it is
getting a lot of press.

Banksy Wannabees of 2014 Stories and Artists - Street I Am

Banksy Wannabees are taking over print journalism -

Banksy wannabees are artists who identify with Banksy and
publications who exploit the word Banksy in their writing to get more
reads. Artist Banksy Wannabees are often referred to as the Paris Banksy
or some other city.   Banksy wannabees who write articles believe that
more people will read about whatever they want to write about if they
simply place the word Banksy in the title or liberally sprinkle it
throughout the article. These Banksy wannabees write stuff like, Forget
Banksy, check out so and so.
