http://www.lightstalkers.org/posts/petition-to-help-photographer-ahn-sehong An entire Lightstalkers thread via RSS/XML. en-us Can I bend your ear for a second? Myself and some colleagues are trying to help out this Korean photographer called Ahn Sehong. He was being funded by Nikon to complete and show a project about 'Comfort Women' . They were young women kidnapped and made to work as sex-slaves for the Japanese Army in WW2. His pictures have generated a lot of controversy in Japan to the extent that he has had threats made to him by extremist groups. Due to political pressure Nikon have bottled and withdrawn their funding . We're putting a petition together to try and make them reverse that decision. We've only been rolling for 24 hours and we've got over 100 photographers and photo-folks willing to add their name to the list - including a Magnum photographer. We've set up a site here : www.iamcensored.co.uk Can we add your name to the list? If so do you know anyone else who might be sympathetic - we could really do with a few more 'big' names so we can get some press interested. Thanks.
