S. V Setlur Nagesh is a humanitarian photographer working with local non-profits, photo-documenting their various charity events such as the World Refugee Day in WNY. Over the years, the World Refugee Day event has grown with increasing participation from both the immigrants population and the established populations in Buffalo, New York. He believes “the reasons for such a harmony is the amazing spirit of the people of Buffalo in standing up to oppression and injustice in the form of peaceful protests, be it for science, women rights or rights for the refugees and new immigrants. This work is a dedication to that spirit.”
