His photographs strive to persuade us to help his cause, evoking feelings of sadness and even disgust. His hope is that we will, in some small way, internalize these feelings and empathize with the harsh suffering experienced by these people. His photographs give these people an identity, as lowly as it may be. It is now up to us to raise these people up, give them meaning, give them purpose and individuality. We live on the same planet as these people, yet our worlds are astronomically different. It's time for a change.Kelseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04617428680202289393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4287235070936233291.post-88657725641418514962010-01-14T11:18:12.454-08:002010-01-14T11:18:12.454-08:00Hey,I really enjoyed reading your post.

He indeed did change the way I view these refugees and I also hope that I will be able to change others opinions on refugees or just raise awareness. I really like the picture you selected. It really says a lot. I can't imagine living an these conditions. Segaldo really is doing something great. His pictures speak volumes about the oppressed, especially this one. The only thing that I might have changed would be introducing Salgado a little more, but overall a very entertaining post.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4287235070936233291.post-59444052192082822632010-01-14T11:16:14.576-08:002010-01-14T11:16:14.576-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
