Shine the light on those who are in the Dark!

My dream assignment would be to go and photograph the faces of those who have given so much to our county, who are now trying to get the help they need... THE NON WORKING CLASS!

My dream assignment would be to go throughout the country and photo all those waiting on the unemployment line to get a job. To photo all those who are in their local court house trying to keep their own homes.

There is no bigger story or more compelling issue in the U.S.A. today. Second only to our troops overseas.

This economic failure is in our housing market, our food market, in our retail market and in our banking system. Health care is effected, childcare is effected and education is effected.

Help me shine the light on those who are in the dark!

what a wonderful idea! I would hope that your photographs while showing the despair and fear would also show that undefeatable American spirit. We may get knocked down but somehow,we get back up

The unemployed are not part of the NON-WORKING CLASS. I work every day and hard. My job is to find a job. I spend most of every day either looking for my next job or working to reinvent my skillset so that I can find that job.

Do not assume that the unemployed aren't working. We are.

that's definitely relevant. you'd be like a Dorthea Lange in the Depression era. my idea is to help others by bringing awareness and unity for non-profits worldwide: http://www.nameyourdreamassignment.com/the-ideas/jenmay/unity-through-community/
