This is very recent, however this does feel like a picture future generations should see.
Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

I think it’s a great and powerful pic, I just think “This will be historical in the future” is not really what the comm is meant for.
I just came across your final decision from an hour ago, and its a pretty fair stance. Glad it’s staying up, can respect not wanting to curate what current events might just be historic.
