Do Not Call Me a Victim

John T. Pedersen

Acid attacks are on the rise in Uganda. However, according to the photographer who met with survivor Gloria Kankunda, there has been little attention paid to the incidences and their consequences. The Do Not Call Me a Victim project gives a human face to the dry statistics and unreported cases – with a voice that says, “I am not a victim.”
