Heroes In Everyday Jobs
Here's an interesting little piece, it's a display of photos of Mexican Immigrants dressed as superheroes, and a commentary on heroism in modern life.
The Mexican immigrant worker in New York is a perfect example of the hero who has gone unnoticed. It is common for a Mexican worker in New York to work extraordinary hours in extreme conditions for very low wages which are saved at great cost and sacrifice and sent to families and communities in Mexico who rely on them to survive.
Among the photos are pictures are Superman delivering pizzas, a scary shot of Spiderman washing windows, Aquaman gutting fish, and more. Then of course, there's Robin. I do believe that we're seeing Robin pimping himself out in front an adult bookstore. Oh Robin... how far you've falle.... wait. Dear god... where is Donna?
