After facing charges of “racism” in its annual photo contest, PDN has quickly offered a response.
PDN confirms that yes, the Photo Annual competition was judged by 24 white people. But it wasn’t an intentional act. You can read the full response –which notes African Americans have judged in past contests.
Meantime PDNonline just posted an interview about the lack of diversity in the photography industry. PDN says the timing is a coincidence.
Of course, a response spawns .. a response to the response: The blog that had taken PDN to task, Reciprocity Failure offers its response to the response, singing Kumbaya. But only one verse.
