It hasn't been maintained very well. Lots of dead/broken links but if you are patient you will find lots of very powerful story telling through Still Photography and Video.

Perhaps the most 'punch you in the gut' story section is called Without Sanctuary. BE WARNED - it contains very graphic and disturbing images. The one thing I kept saying to myself as I viewed this story was... "this was only 100 years ago". We have advanced as a civilization since then but I really have to wonder how far. I recently picked up a Reuters Photography Book while 'Good Will Hunting'. The images in this book published in 2000 are just as gripping as those in Without Sanctuary.

Edit: Clarity. Poor writing on my part

2. Very disturbing and difficult to look at
but a good reminder of where we've come from.
