What happens when strangers with cameras come to Appalachia? It’s a complicated topic that many Appalachians have strong feelings about. We’re taking another listen to an episode we aired in 2015 , but it seems like this issue never goes away. Who gets to tell our story? What is the right way to photograph a community? We’ll hear from some Appalachian photographers, writers, and social media experts, and we’ll talk with a person who has been on the other side of the camera. We’ll also look at a photo essay that was published in VICE magazine, called “ Two Days in Appalachia ,” which caused a lot of debate throughout our region, and we’ll hear from artists and photographers who are hoping to cultivate more diversity and civilian artists. |
