ABOUT THE PHOTO

Taken by Lindsey Michelle Williams for Limitless Horizons Ixil (LHI) on Storytelling School Guatemala

Here, a group of young girls from the Chajul community in El Quiché, Guatemala dress up in a traditional dress and take their own photos of PWB photographer, Lindsey Michelle Williams.

They are standing in the Saber Sin Límites (Limitless Knowledge) Community Library, which was built by Limitless Horizons Ixil (LHI) in 2010. Before then, there was no dedicated place for children to learn beyond the classroom. Now, the library hosts a variety of classes, bilingual Spanish-Ixil story hours, and a supportive place for children to complete their school assignments. All LHI youth and students in San Gaspar, LHI's partner middle school in Chajul, can rent out books to take home.

This image represents the idea that anyone can be a storyteller, regardless of equipment or experience, and also the importance of letting a community tell its own story through its own lens!
