Today there is great concern among some of us about the deluge of undocumented immigrants at our southern border and the resettlement of these migrants throughout the land. This is nativist thinking in my opinion. These immigrants are refugees just as many of the “natives” ancestors were a long time ago. If you believe in […] The post IN THE MIGRANT CAMP appeared first on Dispatch Press Images Blog ..read more

It is sterile because in the case of the photos […] The post THE SILHOUETTE appeared first on Dispatch Press Images Blog ..read more

Just another farm photo you say? I could not disagree more. Fred and Thelma cannot bear to watch as a piece of their farm equipment is hauled away on a flatbed truck. Look to the left of the car.
