Wall Street Protests, 111/112/11
1 / 11

It is day 17 of the protests on Wall Street, where hundreds of demonstrators have gathered to speak out against the bank bailout, the wealth gap, and corporate greed. Over the weekend, photographer Alex Fradkin shot photos from the middle of the crowd on the Brooklyn Bridge, bringing a new perspective to the coverage of the protest and resulting arrests. Though it remains unclear what, if any, concrete results will come out of the protests, Fradkin's photos show the power of the masses to make a powerful statement.
