Description
"I had heard Indiana was not one of the more friendly states that were open to foreigners . . . but my experience has been the total opposite. Everywhere you go, as long as you are genuine with who you are . . . people are willing to open up the doors of opportunity for you without looking at what your cultural background is. It's really one of the things I love about this state." --Olawalle Mafolasire, from Ibadan, Nigeria Until recently, central Indiana has not truly reflected the sheer diversity of races, religions, cultures, and ethnic backgrounds of the rest of the world. In recent decades and especially in the first years of the 21st century, however, cities, towns, and rural areas of the central portion of the Hoosier state have welcomed an increasing number of new residents who constitute a surprisingly broad and diverse cross section of world citizens. To capture and celebrate these changes, New Faces at the Crossroadsfeatures portraits of 30 recent newcomers from around the world by award-winning photographer Jeffrey A. Wolin, accompanied by stories of why they came to the area and their perspectives on living there. Together with John Sherman's text describing changes and additions to the region's population, these striking photographs show that central Indiana is no longer just the Crossroads of America: It is the crossroads of the world. From Bart Peterson, Mayor of Indianapolis "New Faces at the Crossroads illustrates the recent dramatic changes to the human landscape of central Indiana. Together, native-born and foreign-born Hoosiers are learning not simply to talk about 'diversity,' but to live it."
