A Path To Solidarity with Photographer Steven Irby
In this episode of The Darkroom Podcast we spoke with photographer and Co-founder of Street Dreams Mag, Steven Irby. Steven has been documenting the BLM Protests in NYC, balancing his time both on the ground and in conversations with brands/communities on how to move forward from this moment. The last couple weeks have highlighted our unprecedented ability to capture and distribute media from our phones and cameras. Steve lends his perspective on the role photographers and videographers play in fueling a movement like this and the power their media has to both gain and dismantle solidarity. Steve shares his personal experience in contracting work, having lived the ever apparent imbalance and innate biases non-white visual creators face. While much of the media we intake today reinforces divisive positions, we’d like to take a step towards consensus and have an open dialogue on how we move forward together.
