Travis Barker is showing his respect for the firefighters who continue to risk their lives in order to contain and extinguish the catastrophic Los Angeles fires.
The Blink-182 drummer was photographed at the Rose Bowl Complex in Pasadena, California, earlier this week, where he met with incarcerated firefighters on the front lines and members of the Anti-Recidivism Coalition, a network for formerly incarcerated individuals and advocates for criminal justice reform.
Barker took to his Instagram Stories to share photos posing alongside the National Guard, as well as the firefighters from Growlersburg Conservation Camp #33, which is managed Cal Fire and the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. “These guys are heroes,” he wrote over a group photo with the firefighters. “They are risking their lives to serve people. Save people. Help people. And becoming men in the process.”
He continued, “I love the awareness that the Anti-Recidivism Coalition is bringing to the incarcerated guys working these fires. A lot of them came from the juvenile system and this program gives them the ability for real change and to make a difference. To see the humanity in all of them was amazing.”
