Photographed by Nicholas Pollack / @nicholaspollack7/11Abigail Soto, 19, from Brooklyn: “Being a student, talking about student debt is important. Talking about the cost of education in general. That in itself affects another issue: justice reform. I think if black students are able to pay for college it could definitely prevent that issue. . .I really believe in the recreational use of marijuana. It’s one of those things that has been used as a criminalization tool.”
Photographed by Nicholas Pollack / @nicholaspollack8/11Nina Turner, Sanders campaign co-chair: “Sanders supporters come from all walks of life. They are black, they are white, they are brown, they are yellow, they are red, they are the swirl in the middle. They come from all over this country. People really believe in the policy platform. And that doesn’t have an ethnicity or a gender, it really is about humanity. . .What are the candidates who are running for president really going to do to help transform the lives of everyday ordinary people?”
Photographed by Nicholas Pollack / @nicholaspollack9/11Wells, with Ally, both freshmen at NYU: “We came down because she’s subscribed to the [Sanders] email list so we got an email. . .Bernie is the candidate I’m most excited for in the Democratic primary. There are others that I’m hopeful about like [Elizabeth Warren], but when it comes to actual left-wing politics from someone who has a chance of winning, I don’t think anybody has a better chance than Bernie."
