"My Photos Made A Difference"

I strongly believe that through photography we photographers have the ability to help bring about change in our world. I recently read an article on Popular Photography's website about 3 photojournalist that have done just that. Ed Kashi exposed the poverty of the people who live near the oil wells in Nigeria.
Mona Reeder did a photo essay on poverty in south Texas.
Subhankar Banerjee spend year traveling and photographing the Arctic Wildlife Refuge and his photos were used to argue against offshore drilling in the refuge.
