Postcards from Inequalities

A talk exploring the different aspects of global inequalities, guided by the photographs of Johnny Miller, selected from the Unequal Scenes exhibition. These inequalities take many forms: territorial, climatic, and social. They are different faces of the same sad coin, one that represents a growing division between the ultra-rich and the extremely poor—a gap that continues to widen. In the middle, we find a world that is more interconnected than ever, yet still struggling to find balance. This increasing interconnection only makes global crises spark local ones, making the division even harder to bridge. Perhaps it's time to change our perspective—just as Johnny Miller’s photos suggest—and rethink the size of this problem. In doing so, we may begin to see that the answer lies in local, solidarity-based networks, and in the everyday work of organizations that are committed to not leaving anyone behind. While we wait for broader, structural solutions, this path of solidarity and local action is one worth following.
