Forced Migration: There and Here

Featuring: Brian L. Frank
Presented with the support of
Matt and Lisa Chanoff
Just south of the border, displaced families wait indefinitely in ad-hoc refugee camps at the border following difficult journeys north. Not so far north, environmental refugees flee raging fires, which have burned thousands of homes and displaced a large population of U.S. citizens. Forced Migration: There and Here attempts to draw attention to these two groups through photojournalism to highlight their common humanity, regardless of their geographical location.
