Manufacturer's warranty as detailed in the manual
In 1957, Gordon Parks, then a staff photographer for Life, traveled across New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and San Francisco documenting policing and crime. His collection of images would later appear in an essay for Life titled, "The Atmosphere of Crime". Parks, who was a fierce advocate for Civil Rights and saw photography as an essential tool for change, documented the policing and criminalization of marginalized people in his distinct style. Park's images seek to avoid defining the "criminal" and instead urge us to consider the larger forces of state and police power that have inextricably been woven through the history of crime.
