She replied, ‘my occupation is to be a human being’ - I asked Alina what she hopes for and she replied, ‘I hope to die a happy old lady in my bed, surrounded by my majestic women from the fields, and they are singing my freedom song, called NOW.’ Here are the words - ‘Alina, NOW things are better - Alina, NOW we have rights - NOW they give us drinking water and bathrooms in the fields - they pay us fairly NOW - they don’t rape us NOW - they don’t poison us with pesticides - NOW we can walk with dignity in the county where we live and work - NOW we know that we won’t be arrested because our skin is a darker color - Alina, things are better NOW.’ This year, I am proud to celebrate the courage of Alina Diaz with THE PEOPLE’S PORTFOLIO LEADERSHIP AWARD.

Platon Instagram – (1/2) george h. w. bush. ”Today is a day to remember George H. W. Bush. I have fond, personal memories to share with you. I photographed the former president in his Houston office during his son’s term in the White House. Bush Sr. had tremendous charm and wit – his unrelenting political battles of the past had not disfigured the spirit of the man in the present. I asked him about Margaret Thatcher – he said she was a tough lady but a loyal, steady friend. They were together at a summit the very moment news broke about Saddam Hussein’s invasion of Kuwait, ‘she was a rock that day,’ he said. President Bush was also a huge admirer of Churchill. This picture is our private tribute to Winston – ‘V’ for victory at the end of the second world war. Here is the Bush Sr. character on view – playful, disarmingly cheeky, with a deep rooted love and respect, for public service, courage, and history. This picture was to become the cover of a great magazine called Texas Monthly. My dearest friend and greatest collaborator, Scott Dadich, was then, creative director. As soon as the cover was released publicly however, it occurred to me that the George W. Bush White House administration may read the image differently. I immediately received an email from one of W’s chief political advisors – I would love to share the note with you today. ‘Dear Mr. Platon, congratulations on a cover with cross-generational appeal. George H. W. Bush’s two upraised fingers may represent a victory sign, or a peace sign, depending on which side of World War II the reader was born. However, my three year old daughter had a different take. Upon glimpsing the cover from her seat at the front of the grocery cart, she exclaimed, happily, “daddy, that man sings LITTLE BUNNY FOO FOO!”’”
Platon Instagram – (1/2) alina diaz. “This is a picture about exploitation, perception, and above all, courage. THESE WOMEN are all farm workers in the USA. The lady on the left has her hand on her heart – she is my friend, my hero, and her name is Alina Diaz. Alina has dedicated her life to fighting for the rights of women who are undocumented farm workers in the United States. At the time this picture was taken, it was estimated that 50% of all farm workers in the US were undocumented. Colleagues of mine, in the human rights community, have urged me not to show this picture when campaigning for immigration reform. They claim, that the two masked women on the right look menacing, and play into the perception that undocumented immigrants are bandits and criminals. I AM HORRIFIED BY THIS NOTION. I know THESE WOMEN and nothing could be further from the truth – they are not in America to threaten or steal – NO – they are in fact the most vulnerable members of society, living in the shadows of injustice. If you work in the fields you are supposed to wear projective clothing to guard against poisonous pesticides – THESE WOMEN are given nothing – they cover their mouths and noses with handkerchiefs and cotton bandanas. Their clothes are disheveled – baggy and masculine – THESE WOMEN have learnt from experience not to wear fitted, attractive, and feminine garb – it sexually arouses male predators in the field. THESE WOMEN face sexual harassment and sexual violence on a daily basis. Should we allow the architects of intolerance to shape our human rights narrative? – No my leaders – we must dare to challenge tribal perception first – only then, can we confidently humanize the data. I am a man who lives and thrives in a great city called THE BIG APPPLE. A city nicknamed after a fruit that abundantly grows in it’s surrounding farms and fields. To the courageous women who pick our apples, I salute you. Standby for Alina’s story….”
