BBC World Service - The Cultural Frontline, Capturing #endsars on camera

Meet the visionaries, artists and storytellers who capture the world through photography

The stories of visionaries, artists and storytellers who capture the world we live in through photography

A hashtag that went viral, photographs that caught the world’s attention. Rachel Seidu, a photo journalist from Lagos, tells us how she took to the streets to capture the #EndSars protests against police brutality in Nigeria. 

In Johannesburg, one woman is using her camera to change perceptions of a nation still plagued by racial injustice, inequality and high crime rates.  Angel Khumalo tells reporter Mpho Lakaje about the photo club she runs to show another side of her community. 

We hear from two photographers documenting the impact of Covid-19 on mental health.  New Zealand based photographer Tatsiana Chypsanava and Spanish photo journalist Manu Brabo are studying the effect of lockdown on their communities as part of The Wellcome Trust’s Covid-19 Anxiety Project. 

Plus: has a film, a book or a song ever changed the way you see the world? Photographer Misan Harriman, who shot the cover of British Vogue’s September activism issue, tells us how a scene from the film Crash has influenced his work.
