Let’s Talk About Africa. Teachers Don’t Leave Those Kids Alone!
These photographs I took while I was on a study trip, in Africa. I want to tell you a story about how different and similar they are, about what happens when a child don’t get a chance to go to school, about who are rich and who are poor. I think this is another point of view on African children, street children..
