Nesta casa simples, o morador enfeita sua porta com os objetos. A boneca, sapatos de bebê e essa máscara.
This simple house, the resident graces your door with objects. The doll, baby shoes and this mask.
The mill "Goliath" by sunset, there is a lot of inequality in the world even in the far north of the Netherlands. Sept 6, 2022
My photographic art to not only celebrate Chile's independence day but also represent the turmoil caused by inequality that still exists in Chile.
Mi arte fotográfico no sólo para celebrar el día de la independencia de Chile, sino también para representar la agitación causada por la desigualdad que aún existe en Chile.

Makapu'u Point Lighthouse is located on the windward coast, in the southeast corner of Oahu Island in the Hawaiian archipelago. It has become a tourist attraction with a well kept trail of about 2.5 miles from the parking lot to the lighthouse and back. We spotted several humpback whales while we were there.
Quote Of The Day:
"True education makes for inequality; the inequality of individuality, the inequality of success, the glorious inequality of talent, of genius; for inequality, not mediocrity, individual superiority, not standardization, is the measure of the progress of the world." Felix E. Schelling (1858-1945)
Sheet lead, lead pipes. Fuji X-Pro1 plus Helios 44M-7 at F8. It probably means to state the obvious, but let me say it nevertheless: social inequality in my country, the UK, is not just 'happening', it is not 'an accident'. It is actually organised and systemic and institutional. It has been introduced by man. It is not a product of nature.
Happens a lot when the 2% own us all and affect the systematic policies that keep the majority of people suffering.

Homelessness is a problem all over the world.
Vancouver, located in Canada's western province of British Columbia, is generally considered to be a relatively affluent city. It consistently ranks high on global indexes measuring quality of life, including Mercer's Quality of Living Survey. Vancouver has a strong economy driven by sectors such as technology, film and television production, tourism, and natural resources. The city attracts significant foreign investment and is known for its diverse cultural scene, scenic beauty, and mild climate. However, it is important to note that Vancouver also faces issues related to income inequality and housing affordability. The cost of living, particularly in terms of housing prices, has risen significantly in recent years, making it challenging for many residents to afford suitable accommodation.
I am in agreement with most ethical photographers in NOT making the homeless an object for exploitative photography. However, I made an exception in this case for two reasons: one, the justaposition of the homeless man with the Sephora store expressed an important failure of American inequality that seems indifferent to the lives of the very poor and; two, because homelessness in American cities is really reaching a breaking point. We, as photographers, have a contribution to make in this vital discussion.
Museum Arnhem. Textile exhibition Draadkracht – Handcraft as Statement. (Displayed work by Preta Wolzak is hanging).
The series titled Women in Science – Textile portrait of the German-American physicist Maria Goeppert-Mayer. It highlights female scientists who have historically often been overlooked.
Focus on the structural inequality in science, where women in the past regularly received less recognition for their groundbreaking discoveries.
Detailed handcrafted artwork with embroidery and leather appliqués on canvas.
Style: Preta uses bright, contrasting color blocks on the face and heavy sculptural textures around the neck and clothing.

I couldn't pass up the opportunity to capture this image in TOBAGO, a beautiful Island in The Caribbean Sea....What a contrast !
Its hurt to see this poverty on such a beautiful beach !
Usually I do not give anything to beggars. However, this time I was surprised by a black cat who cannot even eat all his sausages, while a man gets nothing sitting nearby. What does it tells us?
"Some say inequality is at the basis
of societal disaster.
Some say collapse of regime is
beneficial for all those not chartered
as the ultra-rich".

" A dream of equality of opportunity, of privilege and property widely distributed;
a dream of a land w here men will not take necessities from the many to give luxuries to the few;
a dream of a land where men will not argue that the color of a man's skin determines the content of his character;
a dream of a nation where all our gifts and resources are held not for ourselves alone, but as instruments of service for the rest of humanity;
the dream of a country where every man will respect the dignity and worth of the human personality."

End inequalities. End AIDS. End Pandemics..
World AIDS Day, celebrated on 1 December every year is the opportunity to unite in the fight against HIV/AIDS, to show support for those who have been diagnosed and to remember those who have been lost to the disease.
These images were created around 2020, in a time marked by Covid, but they do not belong only to that moment. I am republishing them today because reading them again means realizing that their meaning has not been exhausted: the facts change, tragic events change, names and circumstances change, but outside the same violence of human mechanisms, inequalities, intolerance, constraint, and imposed survival continues to hold. That is why these photographs remain contemporary. In the contrast between blue and red, in the purity of white, in the vulnerability of the body and in the harshness of the words, there is still a clear position: not a closed memory, but a thought that is still alive, still exposed, still in conflict with the present. I am republishing them in my Pro account so that they are not lost and so that they can continue to speak.

As in other cities worldwide, Bangkok displays very conspicuous inequality, except that after a while wealthier shoppers just get used to seeing the homeless.
A thin young man, whose clothes have seen better days, seems to be keeping his few belongings in what is presumably a discarded carrier bag, ironically entitled "Good Times." Behind him you can see signs for a Sushi restaurant and a private dental clinic.
Thailand is one of the worst 10 countries in the world in terms of wealth distribution.

It's also ranks poorly in terms of income inequality. A World Bank study found that of 2019, Thailand had an income Gini coefficient of 43.3%, giving it the highest income inequality rate in the East Asia and Pacific region.

The country's wealth and income inequality is perhaps most obvious in the upmarket Sukhumvit area of Bangkok where this photograph was taken and where you can routinely spot Maseratis and Ferraris, but also see many people either sleeping rough or attempting to sell a handful of low value goods on the pavement.
This photograph was used in an article on global inequality -

Anteriormente yo les había presentado una imagen muy parecida a esta y en una situación también en ocasión de una boda. Como les mencione en la ocasión anterior, las desigualdades son manifiestas, mientras unos disfrutan y comparten en tan importante momento otros hacen malabares para subsistir. Quizás la única que se percata de esta situación es la señora que se encuentra en la parte de arriba con el grupo, así es la vida!!!!
