UNTITLEDELEMENT

Greetings.I have lived in the Borough of Ealing for the past 10 years and I was the former house photographer for 3 years to reggae legend Bob Marley and was with him when he passed away in 1981 in Miami. I have self-published the book Portrait of a Legend and other Folks, a portfolio of my work spanning 40 years and am currently running a Kickstarter campaign to raise £3,500 to mount a popup exhibition consisting of 36 black & white photographs of Marley, his family and his band The Wailers.This is likely to be the only photographic exhibition in the UK in 2016 featuring images of Bob Marley. May I therefore utilize this opportunity by asking the people of Ealing to support this campaign.Can we not hear about knife crimes and muggings but instead news about art and other esoteric subjects.With 21 days to go, your support is needed. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/poalaof/untitledelement

Why should i give money to crowdfund an exhibition for a drug dealer and user that was Bob Marley when there are many fine charities like The Nehemiah Project (www.tnp.org.uk) who seek to help those with drug problems rather than glorify them.Give your money to somebody like that who helps rather than destroys people.
