In this episode of The Long Roll Podcast, we sit down with Shuran Huang — a Brooklyn-based photojournalist whose work documents the intersections of faith, politics, and immigration in America. With a focus on nuanced, empathetic storytelling, Shuran brings depth and humanity to some of the country’s most complex issues — from Capitol Hill to immigrant communities across the U.S.

Her photographs have appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, TIME, National Geographic, NPR, and The Guardian. She’s also a recipient of multiple awards, including the Grand Prize in PDN’s Faces Portrait Photography Contest, and her work was featured in TIME's Best Photos of 2023.

In this conversation, Shuran reflects on her journey from China to the U.S., how faith and purpose shape her storytelling, and what it means to bear witness with a camera. We explore the power of intentional listening, and why she views photography as a form of justice.

Whether you're a visual storyteller, a journalist, or simply someone curious about the emotional truths behind the headlines — this episode is for you.
