Nowhere to Call Home: Nowhere to Call Home

en Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 aug 2018

This book continues where my first book left off-with forty photographs and stories of people experiencing homelessness. It is a part of my ongoing mission, begun with volume one, to change the general public's perception of those experiencing homelessness. So often, as I stated in my first book, they are viewed as subhuman creatures, or a lower order of being than human. Through my photographs and stories I am trying to humanize them, to help the general public see that, apart from the unfortunate circumstances in which these people find themselves, they are no different than you and I. I am heartened that, judging from the comments that my first book has received from people around the world, my work seems to be having this effect.

All royalties from this book will be given to Home Horizon: Transitional Support Program....

Leah is an 18-year-old Canadian photographer and author. Since the age of 13, she has been mentored by Joel Sartore, a National Geographic photographer and Fellow. For the past four years, she has been traveling, with her dad, to cities throughout the world to photograph people experiencing homelessness and record their stories, such as Toronto, New York, and Brisbane. In July 2017, CBC's The National aired a mini-documentary about Leah. Since then her career has taken off. Most recently, she has been interviewed by, or appeared on, the BBC, the Corriere della Sera (the largest newspaper in Italy), 7Days (a newspaper in the Netherlands), Global News, the Toronto Star, CBC radio, CBC's The Goods, Chatelaine, Toronto Life, and The Agenda with Steve Paikin, to name just a few.
