April Leigh – Hot Lunch Ladies & the Street Vendor Brigade from Alfredo Aponte on Vimeo.

Peddler gal and pedestrian activist April Leigh speaks of a better life on the street.

Some of the pictures she took to illustrate her point of view have already been posted on our site. Plenty more will be.

Hear her voice, now, and share her hopes for a better Atlanta!

Meet Big Mouth Ben, who sells stuff in downtown Atlanta out of the wheelchair he was in for two years.

Our friend April Leigh, talented photographer, occasional Hot Lunch Lady, and social activist, took the picture of Ben, calling him a “self made man to the max.” He may not be the poster child for the street food revolution, but, by gosh, he is in control of his own life.
