AI-generated narration of the LinkLens-written story only.
Sixteen Bronx middle schoolers photographed the streets they walked every day after studying cellphone images from the Everyday Africa archive. According to a 2014 PRWeb announcement, students at Immaculate Conception School used those archive images to examine how media shape perceptions of other people, cultures, and themselves. The program, called Everyday Bronx, was taught by the Bronx Documentary Center, Everyday Africa, and The LAMP.
The announcement says the students then photographed moments in their own neighborhood, on familiar streets and near places their families worked. A public exhibition was planned at the Bronx Documentary Center. For anyone who has seen their home described by outsiders, the exercise raises a relatable question about who gets to choose what others see. The announcement does not identify the individual photographs: what moments did the students choose to exhibit?
