Mark Wolov How does photojournalism affect the world? In photojournalism, we are given “unprecedented power and indisputable information about the world in which we live” In 1963, a Buddhist monk in Vietnam decided to burn himself to death while he was meditating in front of a crowd. He sacrificed his own life just to protest against religious prosecution.
Would you ever go to that extent to get
your message out to the world? The day President John F. Kennedy saw the picture, he remarked, “no news picture in history has generated so much emotion around the world as that one” Copies of the photo were sold on the streets in Europe. Millions of copies were distributed in Communist China as evidence of “US Imperialism” A Sudanese child tries crawling to a UN camp over a kilometer away. A vulture waits for her to die so it can eat her.
This photo became popular practically
overnight. The photographer won a Pulitzer prize. Kevin Carter, the photographer, was attacked by millions of people for not helping the little girl.
Three months later, he committed
suicide because he was haunted by the famine. On June 5, 1989, a Chinese man in Tiananmen Square, Beijing, stood in front of a line of tanks, preventing their advance. This picture spread worldwide, and he became known as one of the 100 most influential people of the 20th century.
With a single act of defiance captured on
camera, this lone Chinese hero revived the world’s image of courage. A missionary goes to Uganda in April, 1980.
Everyone already knows about the
famine in Africa, but seeing something like this with your own eyes brings you to reality. A South Vietnam national police chief executes a suspected Viet Cong member on February 1, 1968. This is the photo that most influenced people’s opinion on modern warfare. This shocked America into a lot of anti- war enthusiasm. A gorgeous 12 year old girl stands in a cotton mill in Vermont, where she works all day. Although child labor is not present in America today, we know that child labor is very common in developing countries. Knowing that America once used children for work is devastating. This is one of the many photos that convinced America that Congress should pass child labor laws. Photojournalism serves as an instrument for democracy and justice. It can implement violence and oppression, but it also gives a nobody a voice. It plays havoc with power by making a gesture speak a thousand words. Photojournalism goes beyond conveying a mood, it inspires people to act. “Justice can draw its sword in the time it takes an eye to scan an image.”
