WE THE PEOPLE PROJECT

The We The People Project sets out to reveal our connectedness, our similarity, how little we differ even as we look at age, race, and gender. I have spent 25 years photographing people from all over the world in pursuit of revealing this idea. When we see each other in ourselves we evolve. I have struggled with how to exemplify our closeness to each other and our shared humanity. The WE THE PEOPLE PROJECT illuminates our commonality and our community on this magnificent, round, spinning blue globe.
