Willing Participant group responds to Zimmerman verdict

A note from Todd Shalom (Elastic City, Willing Participant) and colleagues:

Everybody, Willing Participant whips up urgent poetic responses to crazy shit that happens. Last night, about 20 people met with us to consider the death of Trayvon Martin. From that meeting, we have decided to create a response that invites the public to show greater respect for the lives of young black men.  We have decided to make a slow-moving sculpture in Times Square that will morph our bodies into various versions of the hoodied self.
