Into the South — Connecting with The Mississippi Delta Chinese
Description
In this story, Nate chats with NY-based photographers Emanuel Hahn and Andrew Kung. While both have a large body of experience with commercial work, the two left the big city behind for a few weeks in October 2017 to personally connect with a community in the South that's been rooted there for generations, but remains largely misunderstood—if known at all—by the rest of America.
Part photojournalism project, part personal exploration of racial and regional identity, The Mississippi Delta Chinese is audiovisual narrative that captures the community's stories with honesty, respect and beauty.
