East End Stories

By Eileen Macavery Kane

East End Stories is a photo essay by Eileen MacAvery Kane featuring people who live and work in the east end of Newburgh, NY, within the area where the FBI conducted a major gang takedown in May 2010. The series is intended to collectively show the love, pain, hope, and resilience that lives there. The portraits and candid images feature people who are both direct and passive victims of gang violence; people who are providing art, academic, and athletic programs for the city's youth; religious leaders of the community who are working hard to provide both physical and spiritual refuge; business owners who are trying to keep commerce in Newburgh; and finally, people who simply call it home.
