At Joe’s thing on Friday I told Jeff that I’d post an exchange I recorded between Eli Reed and a young African refugee named Majaliwa.
Some background: Eli was speaking to a group of African refugees living in Houston. Almost all were in high school; for almost all, English was a second language. Eli showed his Lost Boys of Sudan project and some other work; afterwards the floor was open for questions.
Majaliwa’s hand shot up, and he asked, “Why do you take these pictures?” Eli offered an explanation of how the images go into newspapers and magazines and raise awareness.
“Does that answer your question,” Eli asked.
“No,” said Majaliwa.
And that’s where this clip picks up.
