THINK DIFFERENTLY
Trasgender candidate Bharathi Kannamma ran in the 2014 Indian election, urging the electorate to “think differently” when deciding for whom to vote.

Liaising with London-based assigning-editors, I filed my final edit from Kolkata, India.

I pitched this story to the Guardian in 2017. Workers at the Momentive chemical plant in Waterford, New York went on a 105 day strike over healthcare coverage. The dispute set them against Momentive’s owners including Donald Trump ‘jobs czar’, Stephen Schwarzman who is worth $11.1bn. I researched, filmed and edited this video.
