Photojournalism informs humans on one side of the world about the fates of those on the other. Commerce, the Internet and climate change are all ways in which — for better or for worse — we are connected. As citizens of the same global village we need to know how our neighbors are doing. In the face of a photo news industry in flux, let’s be thankful for photographers’ passion for truthful visual reporting that remains undiminished.
