Red Lens 14: Portraits of Struggle with Orin Langelle

On episode 14 of Red Lens, I sat down for a conversation with Orin Langelle. Orin’s recently published photography book, Portraits of Struggle, highlights his photography going back to 1972. We talk about his book and his lifetime as a concerned photographer, highlighting and participating in struggles against war, and for indigenous, environmental, and economic justice.

The intro/outro song in this episode is ‘Zapatista garage punk instrumental’ by Joshua Hudes. You can find it at https://pixabay.com/music/rock-zapatista-garage-punk-instrumental-instrumental-201262/
