520 8 Published in cooperation with the Library of Congress,
this astounding collection of images by award-winning
photographers tells the story of todays Americaand
provides an enduring legacy that will inform the way we
address our future.0On Inauguration Day, 2009, a group of
photographers who were in Washington to document the
ceremony began a conversation that led to the foundation
of Facing Change. This nonprofit collective has a bold
mission: to create a new national portrait of America. Its
members include some of the countrys most celebrated
photojournalists. Their vision is inspired by the Farm
Security Administrations project that documented the Great
Depression. Chronicling the challenges of modern America,
these photographs offer compelling stories of people
around the country who are coping with the aftermath of
recent events: immigration, health care, housing, the war
in Iraq, Katrina, the great recession and profound
economic disparity. The book includes images from the
original FSA project as well as interviews with Library of
Congress photography experts, which together illustrate
photojournalisms role in engendering change in America.
The 'Facing Change' photographers are each introduced in
intimate essays that describe their history, work, and
aspirations for the project. The photographs revelations
and their powertell a collective story that continues to
unfold, that affects every one of us, that will last many
lifetimes and, it is hoped, impact some of the lives it
has touched.
