When I met him, he had been working in the mines for 14 years, and the leg injury that you see here is actually from a mining accident,

one so severe doctors say his leg should be amputated.

On top of that, Manuru has tuberculosis,

yet he's still forced to work day in and day out in that mine shaft.

Even still, he has a dream that he will become free and become educated with the help of local activists like Free the Slaves,
即使如此,他也梦想着能够重获自由在Free the Slaves这样的组织帮助下接受教育,
and it's this sort of determination,

in the face of unimaginable odds,
面对令人难以想象的苦难,
that fills me with complete awe.

I want to shine a light on slavery.

When I was working in the field,

I brought lots of candles with me,

and with the help of my interpreter,

I imparted to the people I was photographing that I wanted to illuminate their stories and their plight,

so when it was safe for them, and safe for me,

I made these images.
我拍了这一系列的照片。
