While walking around and photographing my community in East Charlotte, I began to see certain trends. In the parks and in neighborhoods, I was seeing a majority of white people running, roller-skating, riding bicycles, and just walking for the sake of walking. At the same time, I witnessed black and latinx people, walking to and from public transportation or grocery stores, wearing masks at bus stops, and working.
This zine is a commentary on a system that creates the conditions where during a pandemic some people are able to work from home, safely social distance, and have time to recreate, while others must risk their health, leaving their homes to work; ride public transportation, limiting social distancing; and walk out of necessity, because they don’t have access to the same resources or opportunities.
It is my hope that this zine will spark conversations on inequity and privilege, leading to discussions about solutions.
This photo zine is a tale of two Charlottes.
