How Nigerian photography can act as a communication tool for social justice.

This is a two-part project, an essay, and a short video that explores the role of Nigerian photography in promoting social justice. The project will convey how photographers have used their work to take a stand against injustices like police brutality, sexism, human rights violations, and economic disparities. The video will feature interviews with three Nigerian photographers about their motivation, processes, and the impact of their socially conscious work. It will show how photography projects related to the End SARS movement against police brutality are an example of how culture can catalyse social change. It will illuminate how photographers operate safely within chaos, to capture images that convey strong societal messages. The project aims to showcase these artworks to a wide audience through digital platforms to increase awareness and empathy. It will analyse the photographers’ intentions in creating these images and the emotions they hope to evoke. Overall, the goal is to demonstrate photography’s power as a communication tool for social equality in Nigeria by highlighting artists who have used photography to give voice to injustices.
