robertogrecoWhat would photojournalism & documentary photography look like – now & in the past – if the photographer’s right to take someone’s image were balanced by that person’s right to say No?
The photographer’s right to take has been & is rooted in a connection to power–cultural, economic, political. The poor, the marginalized, & the oppressed have never had a parallel right to refuse to have their image taken because they lack & have lacked that connection to power.
Say her name: Florence Thompson. When the well-dressed government lady in the big car stopped & asked if she could take her picture, she was in no position to refuse. She became the iconic face of the Great Depression, & she resented it. (Photo: Dorothea Lange/FSA) [image]
“I wish she hadn’t taken my picture. I can’t get a penny out of it. [Lange] didn’t ask my name. She said she wouldn’t sell the pictures. She said she’d send me a copy. She never did.”

This powerful piece by @CAushana & @tlpix brings together a black photographer’s personal experiences, history, & theory, acknowledging the good & the bad in photography of social movements.
“Protest Photography Can Be a Powerful Tool For and Against Black Lives Matter | Nieman Reports: The photojournalist community has become embroiled in heated online debates about the ethics of photographing and publishing images of protesters.”
https://niemanreports.org/articles/protest-photography-and-black-lives-matter/
In this article, @bunnisays challenges white photographers to, among other things, open their eyes wider & take a more capacious (& less cliched) view of protests. Key word: Respect.
“In Photographing Social Justice Protests, Respect Means ‘Looking Again’ | Nieman Reports: If visual journalists privilege conflict over collaboration and community, we fail in our duties as witness, truthful storyteller, and concerned citizen”
https://niemanreports.org/articles/in-photographing-social-justice-protests-respect-means-looking-again/
Five very short, related essays by @AishaAriella are a good introduction to how she’s transforming our understanding the history of photography. For her, photography can’t be separated from the powerful interests that it so often served.
https://fotomuseum.ch/en/explore/still-searching/articles/155239_unlearning_the_origins_of_photography
Azoulay <@AishaAriella> argues that photographers’ connections to elites – political, commercial, cultural – granted them the “right” to take photos of the colonized, the marginalized, the poor, & the oppressed, while giving the “subjects” of their images no rights at all.
A big thank you to Laura for bringing these resources to my attention. https://twitter.com/_LSaunders_/status/1343937321331265540
@johnedwinmason The @StrangeFireCol has a wonderful resource section that we’ve also shared on @photo_rights along with some others. http://strangefirecollective.com/resources
Recently, people have started to look at resistance to photography. (Once you think of it, it’s surprising that it’s taken so long.) I like Scott Matthews’ work a lot. I wish this article were freely available online.
“Protesting the Privilege of Perception: Resistance to Documentary Work in Hale County, Alabama, 1900–2010” by Scott L. Matthews
https://www.southerncultures.org/article/protesting-the-privilege-of-perception-resistance-to-documentary-work-in-hale-county-alabama-1900-2010/
If someone asked, “What topics in photo history need to be explored?” I might say, “Resistance to photography.” As some have pointed out, resistance has always been there, but photographers usually edit it out. Happily archives sometimes show it to us.

robertogrecoHere’s an idea. Instead of some investigation, @MagnumPhotos might want to follow the lead of @NatGeo who invited @johnedwinmason to look at their archive. See https://nationalgeographic.com/magazine/2018/04/from-the-editor-race-racism-history/
Now, I’m not saying that Magnum’s main founders – Capa, Cartier-Bresson, Rodger, & Seymour – were personally racist & sexist. That’s beside the point. They were, however, the beneficiaries of interlocking systems of privilege & oppression.
When these men helped to found Magnum, they were already commercially successful photojournalists. They were talented & hard-working. But being white, male, & European or American gave them a tremendous advantage over equally gifted & determined photographers who weren’t.
After founding Magnum, right after WWII, they built its reputation by photographing the world. They especially traveled pathways that British & French imperialism had created & that were increasingly maintained by the US. Imperialism & white supremacy gave them the “right” to go.
Imperialism & white supremacy also granted them “permission” to photograph virtually any black & brown person, no matter what circumstances they might be in & over whatever objections they might have.
John Edwin Mason
To a large extent, Magnum’s reputation came to rest on its images of suffering or exoticized black & brown people. People who didn’t have the power to say No. People who had no “right” to photograph the places Magnum’s photographers came from.
Magnum, that is, replicated colonial exploitation.
For many decades, Magnum’s membership reflected its origins – overwhelming white male, & European or North American. Magnum was slow to bring in white women as full members. Even slower to bring in photographers of color. Infamously it had just one Black full member for decades.
But, you say, Magnum’s photographers were the good guys. Humanists. The very model of the “concerned photographer.” That’s true of many of them. But they were trapped in systems larger than themselves. They failed to recognize that. And they never put their own house in order.
Magnum should join the many other institutions who are engaged in genuinely examining their past, acknowledging how racism, especially, & other forms of privilege & oppression shape their past & their present. https://www.poynter.org/maligned-in-black-white/
Similarly, many US colleges & universities are engaged in the same sort of reflection. Magnum has many models from which to choose. https://slavery.virginia.edu/symposium/
PS What’s good for Magnum would be equally good for other institutions. Corporate America, for instance, has been very reluctant to look at its dark past & connect it to its present.”
