This week’s photo gallery is packed with power, protest, celebration, and legacy — from demonstrators outside Planned Parenthood holding “Abort the Court” signs to marchers crossing the Martin Luther King Bridge calling for faith and justice in the fight against ICE policies. We capture the color and pageantry of Mardi Gras in downtown St. Louis, along with the electric energy of the Valentine’s Day Mixtape concert at Chaifetz Arena, where Trey Songz, Ashanti, Lil Boosie and more lit up the stage. On the academic front, Dr. Dannielle Joy Davis reflects the impact of education leadership at Saint Louis University, while hardwood action heats up as Vashon defeats Webster Groves at the Annual High School Hoops Showcase. We also look back at powerful historical moments featuring the late Rev. Jesse Jackson, highlighting his enduring ties to St. Louis and The St. Louis American.
