    Adger was Gordons assistant at one point: “Often such talent abides by rules set by others,” Parks wrote, “but Adger’s individualism sets him apart, simply because he follows his own convictions. His photographs go as far as imagery can go without actually speaking. Cowans has acquired the freedom to master himself.” My kind of man.

    Hello! I appreciate the fantastic videos and topics you share. It's wonderful to see the emergence of many talented new black photographers. You showcased five of them and brought attention to one of my personal favorites: Gordon Parks. Mr. Parks' impact extends far beyond photography, as you rightly pointed out. Another black photographer I admire is Dawoud Bey. Sending greetings from Brazil and apologizing for any errors I may have made.
