Being There
Child in poverty, san francisco, 6/26/07.
Blonde Poverty
“This gleaming young girl from the poorest of favelas (shanties) in our region, captured by my lens during our
Beija-Flor na Comunidade (Hummingbird in the Community)programme there a few weeks ago, is a prime
example of beautiful Brazilian diversity.”

Children
“Whilst our governing politicians fight to defend their heavily crit cized wage increases of more than 90%,

Christmas and every other day of the year is a plight for survival for families such as this one in Brazil, where
each day is merely just another one in a long line of monotonous days and where expectations for positive social
change are few and far between. “

I have dreams…
“This boy seemed a bit different from the others. He seemed to think and have some sort of individuality. He will
have tough odds to face to keep them as he grows. Poverty, lack of good education, religious leaders drumming up

Gupta.

Through the eyes of terror…
“Tamira’s cousin, Emily, is one of many family members in this extremely large family group, who live secluded
in the woods surrounding Sítio Joaninha. Their little, invaded small-holding is not what it used to be when
grandpa was alive and managed to keep everything and everyone well-organized.”

Port area
“these kids, who lived in a tattered shanty at a squatters area in manila, had to wait anxiously for their mother as
she tried to make a meager living washing clothes.” The photo is taken by Roger Alcantara.
For the sake of love?
