Duty, burden, privilege: Seeking the truth and who gets to tell it
Back in 2020, amidst Black Lives Matter protests, Repicture host Nyasha Kadandara noticed the gatekeepers of storytelling proclaiming “hire black”. This caused her to reflect on photographers who document their own communities. In this episode Nyasha and co-host Tasneem Alsultan ask four photographers how they strive to accurately represent and document their own communities that are often misrepresented in the media. Do they see their work as a duty, burden, privilege or something else entirely? Nyasha and Tasneem also share their own hesitancies and frustrations about working in their own communities and abroad. Featuring Patience Zalanga, Fabiola Ferrero, Barry Christianson and Andrea Bruce.
