OK, over to you. Liam Kennedy of the Clinton Institute for American Studies has presented his 10 nominations for Photo of the Decade, from Palestinians fleeing tear gas in 2000 to the death of Neda Agha Soltan in 2009. But his is just one opinion. We invite readers to present their own choice from the 10 photographs or submit their own nominations.
Starting today, Enduring America teams up with the Photography and International Conflict website of the Clinton Institute for American Studies in a special project on “The Photos of the Decade”. Each day for 10 days we will post a photograph from a year in the decade, and we will invite readers to submit their own memorable photographs. We will then continue the discussion until readers select The Photograph of the Decade.
Liam Kennedy, the Director of the Clinton Institute, writes:
These photographs depict significant moments and events in the decade 2000-2009. The selection is not intended to denote the “best” news photographs but to provide a visual iconography of the period, one which may be suggestive as much for what it excludes as it includes.
