"My mission is to tell you the story and then you decide what you want to do, my mission is to make sure that nobody can say: 'I didn't know'." - Yannis Behrakis
Probably most of you guys don't know this, but I am a news addict, I am constantly on my news app any spare-minute I have. I really connected to this quote, because I am so in-tuned to world events, and I never want to be the last to know when it is relating to world news. Photographers like Yannis Behrakis, photographed conflict zones for a living, so readers, myself included, would have a picture to go along with the story. His quote is inspirational, because he made it his job to make sure we knew the story, risking his life sometime, and so we have no excuse to look away at the atrocities that are going on in the world.
