#277 PHOTOWALK: “SACRIFICE THE WEAK?!” A PHOTOSTORY ABOUT EMPATHY
After seeing a sign held aloft at a 2020 protest calling for the state to 'Sacrifice the weak,' Madison Thorn embarked on a photo and interview project to document the stories of those considered 'High Risk Humans'. Also, Dennis Skyum on producing your first self published book plus letters from the mailbag on having faith in your work, cycling and photographing to find inner peace, making your first 365 and how vintage cameras are conversation magnets.
