Tribute to lost families…(II) Photo

Photographer’s Note

Rwanda genocide

Commonly treated as numbers (statistics) they are in reality histories and real facts.
Entire families reflects the tragedy.
In this case some dignity in form of mats.
In fact mother and children's.
Dead lined up to the side of the road gave us for the number a pale idea of the evolution of the developed work.

This is about daily death.

Road from Goma to Kibumba refugee field

Photo/scan July - 1994

Maybe this is the last scan on this subject

This is another sad document of the atrocities that the world does not want to acknowledge. It also shows the dignity of who left the wrapped bodies along the road. Finally, it is always very difficult to comment this type of extraordinary and necessary work.

olá,
mais uma fotografia que, sem a censura do permitido por jornais, mostra realmente a crua realidade desta tragédia infelismente já esquecida por quase toda a gente. pouco mais consigo dizer pois esta é mais um exemplo de que algumas fotografias falam por elas! os meus sinceros parabéns pelo seu trabalho!
abraço

Jose,

Thank you for sharing some of the saddest pictures I have ever seen. While they show daily death, they are also about the prevention of it, in more ways than one.

Keep up the good work,

Casper

Olá José,
Foi há 14 anos, mas podia ser há 41 ou há 4 dias. Infelizmente. Como podem os responsáveis por estas tragédias dormir descansados?
.
Um abraço,

There is a tiny piece of human foot with the toes, visible in one of those 'parcels'...
The most horrid and mind boggling detail in photo I've seen in a long time !

Implausible world… Unbelievable scenarios…

Thanks Jose, for giving us a headache…
