Having started the story Kenya’s Nubians: Then & Now in 2008, it wasn’t until I received a grant from the Open Society Institute before the project took on a life of its own. As I moved forward with my work and identified new audiences for the project, the development of a dedicated website specifically for the project became essential. I already had a preDesigned liveBooks site for my larger project Nowhere People, and was incredibly happy with the results I was getting from it, so there was no doubt in my mind that liveBooks would be a perfect fit. liveBooks generously donated the site to the project and as the project has developed, so has the need to expand the website. The developers at liveBooks have worked with me to customize components of the site as this project has grown. From a photo essay to international exhibitions, a multimedia feature and now into a book, Kenya’s Nubians has been an incredibly rewarding project to work on and develop. The liveBooks site has played a vital role in helping me expose the work and making sure it is accessible to a variety of important audiences.

Nowhere People intends to give a small voice to people who for generation have had none. It aims to show the human toll the denial of citizenship has claimed on people and ethnic programs that find themselves excluded from society by forces beyond their control. More importantly, it hopes to provide tangible documentation of proof that millions of people hidden and forgotten all over the world actually exist. Photographer Greg Constantine began work on Nowhere People in 2005.

Kenya’s Nubians: Then and Now

Posted by liveBooks

Greg Constantine is a photojournalist from the United States. He currently resides in Asia where he is working on his most recent project, Nowhere People, which focuses on the denial of citizenship and the struggles of stateless ethnic minority groups around the world. As part of that project he is publishing a book in the fall of 2011 called Kenya’s Nubians: Then and Now. Without citizenship, stateless people have no recognized nationality, belong to no country and do not have access to most social, civil and economic rights. Greg’s work exposes the human toll that statelessness has claimed on people and ethnic groups that find themselves excluded from society by forces beyond their control.

THE PROBLEM:
Like many photojournalists based in the United States, I traveled to Haiti to cover the January 12th earthquake. I came home with an impressive array of photographs, which I believed to be both marketable and worthy of public notice. Yet, like many young photojournalists, I had limited opportunity by which to market my work.

It was a small moment of crisis for me. Were these images of others suffering to become mere fodder for my tweets and Facebook updates? Just another portfolio to be displayed on my website? I immediately decided that I would do to do more than simply allow these images to lay idle on my hard drive. I had to find a way to make a difference, and also advance my career at the same time.
