Tender Photo

A digital platform of African photography.

Emmanuel Iduma’s Tender Photo newsletter reminds us that photography can and does serve as a bridge. In a time when all we seem to hear about is online division and manipulation, Tender Photo brings us closer to the lives and experiences of others through powerful and beautiful photographs. Tender Photo is the one newsletter I read in its entirety as soon as it reaches my inbox.
