The pioneering labor activist speaks with the artist and organizer about the nature of power and how we can all effect meaningful change.
LaToya Ruby Frazier’s photographs document the challenges and inequities faced by people across America’s heartland but also serve as calls to action to help address them. Born in 1982 in Braddock, Pennsylvania, a once-bustling steel town near Pittsburgh, Frazier began capturing the profound toll that years of deindustrialization, economic devastation, and environmental abuse had taken on her community while she was still a teenager.
She was an entrepreneur and worked two jobs until she was able to save enough money to start her own business. She had a restaurant before World War II. That’s when one of her Japanese friends was sent to an internment camp and asked my mother to take over her business, which was a hotel. She also set up the first Hispanic chamber of commerce in Stockton and was involved in voter-registration drives. She was very charitable and paid for some of my friends to go to Girl Scout camp.
