Brenda Ann Kenneally: Upstate Girls (19 pics)

Posted in Girls 16 Oct 2009 / 14729 views

Brenda Ann Kenneally's documentary work about women in the once booming industrial city of Troy, NY, can be explored on her site. She followed seven different women over a five year period, experiencing their struggles and attempts to overcome the generational poverty that has overtaken a large percent of Troy's female headed families.
She says: “As a journalist and activist I have dedicated my life to exploring the how and why of class inequity in America. I am concerned with the internalized social messages that will live on for generations after our economic and social policies catch up with the reality of living on the bottom rung of America's upwardly mobile society.”
