Sincerely I& #39;ve been pointing out what a racist org @WorldPressPhoto is for ten years. One of my favorite people in the whole world @YasuyoshiChiba won the top prize last year and I could not bring myself to congratulate him. (Sorry Chiba

The article is off the back of this one by @TomSeymour which I hadn& #39;t seen.

Not just me. Lots and lots of people. Notably @johnedwinmason @chiragwakaskar @kainazamaria
Whilst certain groups who should know better were kissing their ass.

Not just racism, misogyny.
& #39;At the heart of this story is an Iranian woman who says sheâs not a & #39;prostitute& #39; being told by a group of guys really she is. Because when it comes to Iranian women the men at @WorldPressPhoto know best.& #39; https://www.duckrabbit.info/blog/2018/02/sex-lies-lemmings-hossein-fatemi-toxification-photojournalism/">https://www.duckrabbit.info/blog/2018...

Then there& #39;s the @WorldPressPhoto award winner who thought nothing of filming boys in a shower and outing survivors of sexual abuse.
& #39;Photojournalism is an industry that rewards racist stereotypes delivered by cheats.& #39; https://www.duckrabbit.info/blog/2019/04/and-the-award-for-world-press-photo-predator-goes-to/">https://www.duckrabbit.info/blog/2019...

Just remember @WorldPressPhoto makes money touring this highly unethical and often racist work. Huge exhibition fees. They wouldn& #39;t want to spoil that by introducing senior management who are Black and/or understand journalism.
Right?
