Welcome to BSA Images of the Week.
As usual in 2025, it was a casual week of parades, protests, and military deployments—just your average backdrop for all the high school graduations, weddings, camping trips that happen this time of year. In Los Angeles, 4,000 National Guard troops and 700 Marines were deployed after ICE raids shook entire neighborhoods, prompting the governor to cry federal overreach. Meanwhile, the “No Kings” movement lit up an estimated 2,000 cities with protests against authoritarian drift, right as Trump celebrated his 79th birthday with a U.S. Army parade in DC featuring tanks, jets, fireworks, and an ambiance best described as “military cosplay meets birthday bash.” To keep the global tension meter on high, Israel launched strikes on Iran, and Iran responded by hitting Tel Aviv—because apparently, world affairs now follow the same script as a group chat argument, with grave consequences.
In art and culture news, the Trump administration has proposed eliminating federal funding for NPR, PBS, and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, with the House approving a $1.1 billion rescission that is now headed to the Senate. Simultaneously, over 500 arts grants from the National Endowment for the Arts have been revoked—especially those tied to DEI or LGBTQ+ themes—and the 2026 budget proposes dismantling the NEA entirely.
Here is our weekly interview with the streets, this week featuring Adam Fujita, Bonut, Drew, Duster, Four Star, Great Boxers, Hef, JJ Veronis, KAM, Kristy McCarthy, LNE Crew, Nite Owl, Seaizing, and SHC.
