“It sounds very basic, but it’s very hard when you try to execute it in journalism: the sense that we all are human.” –Anthony Shadid
WOUNDS highlights the stories of those directly impacted by drone attacks in Pakistan–in their own words.
Since the drone attacks began in Pakistan in 2004, much of the focus has been on the technology. And, although the borderlands between Pakistan and Afghanistan are endlessly debated and declared upon by journalists and pundits, the ordinary people who actually live there are rarely heard from. WOUNDS records the voices of those who have been either labeled “militants,” or summarily dismissed as “collateral damage.”
