What's your first thought once you see this picture :( ?


Farai Chideya talks to Dan Krauss, the director of The Death of Kevin Carter, an Oscar-nominated documentary about the life, work and suicide of a Pulitzer-prize winning South African photojournalist.

Carter's winning photo shows a heart-breaking scene of a starving child collapsed on the ground, struggling to get to a food center during a famine in the Sudan in 1993. In the background, a vulture stalks the emaciated child.

Carter was part of a group of four fearless photojournalists known as the "Bang Bang Club" who traveled throughout South Africa capturing the atrocities committed during apartheid.

Haunted by the horrific images from Sudan, Carter committed suicide in 1994 soon after receiving the award.

My first thought was "Thats horrible I wish I could do something" but I can't.


It's just so sad for me to see these kind of pictures. I mean seriously we are all lucky to be able to have something to eat everyday.Whenever I don't wanna eat my food my dad always reminds about how lucky I am to have food everyday and that in Africa kids die because they got nothing to eat.So we should all be grateful of what we have.

I am NOT saying this is fake, but that is just how it looks to me. And if I really saw this, I probably would kill myself too.

Help. I want to help this child and all others who suffer from apartheid. Also, horror and disgust that our country (the U.S.) isn't giving this atrocity our full attention. No child should know such pain and suffering.
