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.
