Your photographic works do show a sad area, depleted of strong youngsters. But, I've always heard that from the ashes spring strong Oaks. There is hope for the future, here.
PS: It is good to see your photographic skills in action - again.
From Louisiana with hope and prayers for your 'legal' works.
I sometimes wonder whether 'we' shouldn't move to these small, old decaying towns, create a community and revive the town, building on what is already there.
You often hear of folk 'buying land' to try to live outside the system. Perhaps another option is to buy houses in towns like South Bank
Insightful photograph essay, on another Forgotten Place of Empire. Your are right : it shouldn't be like this. The Margins. Can they blossom again? Surely. But how much pain must first be countenanced and endured?
Malignant neglect and deliberate decimation...horrible to see what has been done to God's gift of a "green and pleasant land" !
