Slums,
ghettos,
shantytowns,
informal settlements.
These places
all over the
world,
in India,
Kenya,
Indonesia,
Venezuela,
Mexico,
The USA...
To the
people, who
live in them, they
are called
home.
It's all they
know.
It's all they
have.
To us, it
seems like
nothing,
like it's all
so
far
away
that it can never
touch us.
And so we ignore it.
We ignore
them.
