My cousins and grandmother gather around to celebrate Great Granny's 97th birthday while she lays sick in bed with pneumonia, unable to walk. Granny was a Christmas baby and my grandmother would always drive down to Selma to bring her to my mothers house for the holidays but this year was a new exception. Kinfolk, Nicole Craine, 2015

Fifteen years in the making, KINFOLK pulls back the curtain on Southern White femininity, revealing its beauty, contradictions and despair. In an attempt to break the cycles of violence, addiction and racism, photojournalist Nicole Craine documents her family’s dark past and challenging present.
