In this episode of Get the Picture, host Brad Sigal talks with movement photographer Brooke Anderson about a recent article she wrote: Photojournalists documenting Trump’s deportation forces play critical role, but face increasing state violence. In the article, Anderson details alarming incidents around the country in which photojournalists have faced state repression for doing photojournalism covering immigration enforcement operations. She also shares the overwhelming sentiment from the photojournalists she interviewed about the importance of continuing to do the work despite facing repression, as well as suggestions on how to stay as safe as possible under extremely trying conditions.
