IVAW at the DNC 2008

published by IVAW Admin on 05/25/10 2:00pm
The DNC of 2009 was an event I will never forget. The small triumphs that were achieved through peaceful protest, brought many to tears and I can proudly say I was one of them. I have long been interested in politics, and social justice, and with the infinite platforms the internet has to offer I feel we are at a point where everyones voice can truly be heard. My effort as a photographer is to bring those stories that need to be told, to those that need to hear them. With exploration and empathy as my driving qualities, I am always looking for new projects and new subjects to photograph. thepaulwinner.com0014_thepaulwinner.com_.jpg

Fear, Guilt and Love: Reflections on the World Social Forum from a US Veteran

I’ve tried, pretty successfully, to live a life without too much fear. Growing up I didn’t follow the rules of stranger danger. I talked to everyone I met, picked up hitchhikers, went out to unfamiliar places alone, and I’...
