Bright Lights Online: Abdul Aziz
On June 25th, 2021, the Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities presented C. J. Hunt in conversation with Abdul Aziz, the LEH’s Documentary Photographer of the Year. Aziz, a conflict photographer who has captured scenes of discord in Somalia and the Gaza Strip, has recently turned his lens on scenes of social and political unrest across Louisiana and beyond. Capturing the widespread protests against police brutality and the movement for social and racial justice, Aziz’s photography forms a record of our time with deep roots in American history.
