Keith Harmon Snow is a writer, journalist and photographer who has a massive body of work spanning over a decade investigating war crimes, genocide, crimes against humanity, and environmental disasters. He also swam across La Jolla Cove the other morning, recently traversed Mongolia with a bicycle, and somehow didn’t lose his voice after three hours of illuminating discussion of the atrocities happening today in Congo and elsewhere. The visual story he tells with his photographs is enough to impress you on its own.
His talk last night was aimed at white-owner plantation slavery in Congo, and titled, “The Courage of the Congolese People.” Whatever your views, Snow tells an interest story, and I think the most important thing to take away from the event wouldn’t be conviction, but awareness.
If you’re in San Diego tonight, you have a chance to hear Snow discuss a related topic: “the open policies and hidden agendas of ‘humanitarian’ agencies, non-government organizations, so-called “peacekeeping” missions, and the corporations and individuals behind them”.
