Army Specialist Martinez, 26, served for almost six years (one tour in Afghanistan) in active duty and was eventually discharged on November 26th, 2014, for being discovered as transgender. She risked dismissal from service for revealing her identity. Maya said, "I’ve gone to work scared every day that today is going to be the day that they are going to hammer down on me...for just being me.” Being openly transgender in the military is found as a behavioral or mental disorder and they can kick you out." On July 14th 2015, U.S Defense Secretary Ash Carter announced the beginning of a six-month review that would allow transgender men and women to serve openly in the U.S. Military. The Trump administration has since reversed the progress and the United States Government will no longer accept or allow transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military.

It was about 4 a.m. and roughly 20 minutes after the first shooting. When the first shooting occurred I was two blocks away and people scattered. Police barricades were stampeded. When the second shooting occurred I was on the corner of Franklin and Empire, half a block away. The gunshot was a light pop and sounded almost like a firecracker. A few people ran but initially people seemed unsure whether it was a gunshot or not, myself included. Then I saw police rushing to the scene. Only when I got a bit closer did I see Ms. Poyau on the ground.

My mother’s response to the picture:
This is a strong photo of a mother-daughter relationship. Nora’s devotion moves me. The photo captures me as older and sadder than what I perceive myself as. Maybe that's how Nora sees me - or maybe that's how I am?

Bordj Bou Arreridj is a small city in the Western part of Algeria, the people of this city has been offering us some impressive mass gatherings against the current regime in Algeria and this was like a slap for western media who were trying to give us the impression that the popular uprising is happening only in the capital Algiers.

This photo, together with other photos in this project, were published half a year after the story was photographed because we decided that we shouldn't publish the story if the man's family didn't know the truth. It would be unethical of us if they learned the truth from the reporting. We would only publish it if we know and confirm that his family is aware of the truth. If they never learn the truth, we will never publish it. Two months after the trip, Wang told his mother. It took us another three months to get access to his mother to verify the situation.

In early 2017, Christian was flagged for deportation due to his undocumented status and prior low-level drug charge. As he made his way to work one morning, he was cornered by ICE agents and taken to a detention center where he was told to await his hearing. Citing international coverage of the drug war, the judge at his hearing decided that deporting Christian back to the Philippines with his record would put him in mortal danger, and granted him asylum. This means that he can live and work in the U.S. legally, but has effectively rescinded his Filipino citizenship and is not allowed to return; and because of his record, he does not have a path to citizenship, rendering him stateless.
