Reading the Pictures is a non-profit organization based in Berkeley, CA that has been at the forefront of analyzing news photos and media images since 2003. With a mission to raise visual literacy and speak truth to visual power, they provide a platform for dialogue between the photojournalism community, academia, media watchers, and social media, offering expert analysis and insights into visual media and culture.
