Marginalized populations are groups and communities that experience discrimination and exclusion (social, political and economic) because of unequal power relationships across economic, political, social and cultural dimensions. When the miasma of the coronavirus pandemic crept across the state of Kentucky I decided to focus on capturing the faces and pandemic stories of members of marginalized populations within the state. The faces of my pandemic portraits are faces of Taco Bell workers forced to work while infected with COVID, trans people who were forced to face homelessness, teachers crying in their office after watching their students struggle, faces of elderly grandparents whose children spent hours online refreshing the early vaccination availabilities. The stories and faces of all of them are captured and their voices/stories preserved for those in the future who don't bear the same psychological scars as those of us who have survived the coronavirus pandemic.
