7PORTRAITS BULLETS

BALTIMORE, MD – For most of us, the door symbolizes safety and security. In this photo, it’s obvious by the bullet holes that this door doesn’t provide protection. To see a child relying on something so flimsy is both heartbreaking and infuriating. No child should have to live like that — not in Baltimore, not anywhere. But 70 children regulary use this building, and a number were inside when the bullets that made these holes hit. Miraculously no one was hurt, but should we have to depend on miracles for the safety of children? Photo by Chiaki Kawajiri
