« I live in Flint, and have for most of my life. When I saw greenish and light brown water that smelled like a pond, rotten eggs, and chlorine, I wanted to find out what was happening in my community. My family was getting rashes just like those that I was photographing. We were paying high water bills and still having to buy 10 gallons of water to drink and cook with for a little less than a week… The water crisis has become one of the most important stories to document in my career. And my life. » – photographer, Ryan GarzaJa (via Teen Vogue)
