DESCRIPTION I was walking the streets of a slum called Sambizanga in the Angolan capital of Luanda when I saw this football game. Angola is awash with oil and diamonds, but 70% of Angolans live below the poverty line, many in neighborhoods like this one. My local guide and I stopped to talk and dribble a bit with the boys. Theyd rented a ball for a few hours from a Chinese businessman, one of hundreds of thousands living in Angola. At the time, I was working on a photo exhibition about football in Africa. For over twenty years, Ive been telling stories from the continent about subjects other than war, misery, or disease. A friend of mine who works at the Italian photo agency ParalleloZero asked me for the picture. Soon after, it appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated, a magazine I knew only for its famous calendar with beautiful models in bikinis on the beach. I sent a copy to my local guide in Angola. I hope the kids I photographed were happy to see their cover.

ABOUT NURU PROJECT Nuru Project sells the work of photojournalists covering the great social challenges of our time. We donate 25% of your purchase price to the photojournalist and another 25% to our assigned non-profit partner, all of which which work to better lives in the communities represented in our photographs.

'Nuru' means 'light' in Swahili, photography being the medium of light. The double meaning of the name is that these images shine a light on what it’s like to live in a place defined by hardship. By selling prints that tell stories about people's everyday lives -- their families, th eir struggles, their traditions, their passions -- we create a connection between print buyer and subject that is based on commonality and respect. Our prints are snapshots of hope and stunning messages to adorn your walls. Read More...
