Dignity in Exile

Stories of Struggle and Hope from a Modern American Shanty Town

Beschreibung

Situated on the Portland International Airport, Dignity Village is the first city-recognised shantytown, and a place the dejected, jobless, and impoverished outcasts of society call home. This photo-ethnographic account is a stunning portraiture of the people who live there, explored through high-quality reporting, remarkable photography, and an honest visual representation of the flame of dignity that burns deep inside those in exile.
