Assignment 1: Khalik Allah’s beauty in photography is his ability to capture everyday life's raw and most vulnerable essence. He is most known and famous for his street photography, and most capture the streets of Harlem, New York. You can see the sociological pain, grief, and agony some people portray when their photos are being taken, and I believe it goes down to more than one element in his style. Khalik enjoys shedding light on the unseen of our society and what seems to be hidden from the media. This might be why he hints at “knowledge being born”, he spoon-feeds the unknown into society and shows what it is like to be African-American or of a minority on the streets of New York. When Khalik mentions that his photography can bring out understanding, I highly believe it can. When society and multiple individuals are able to see the perspectives of others, even through a camera lens, it widens yours to a whole different level.
It allows you to analyze life on a deeper scale. When he said, "the goal of life is to extend the light into people's lives," I believe he meant that in order to understand people, we must shine a light on them in their darkest moments and picture them. I think he utilized photography and movies to delve deeper into people's lives and sentiments, and I believe he is correct.
