At this very moment, I’m sitting in a coffee shop in down town San Francisco on a Friday afternoon, it’s about 75 degrees out, sunny, clear, the best weather we’ve had in some time. Yet, I can’t seem to pull my head out of this book long enough to enjoy it. I just picked up a copy of “The Puerto Rican Diaspora” by Frank Espada, and I have to say that it is a remarkable body of work. I had the great privilege to study under Frank for a brief time while in college. He is truly an amazing and under appreciated photographer, as well as a master printer.
A friend and colleague of mine has really been on a roll lately. Ryan Spencer Reed’s exhibition, Sudan: The Cost of Silence, has been generating quite a buzz on the web and in the universities. This project was started several years ago and is finally getting some of the recognition it deserves. The exhibition has been touring colleges and universities around the United States for some months now, and just finished a showing at the Holocaust Museum of Southwest Florida.
