| Description: |
In the first years of the 21st century, cities, towns, and rural areas of the central portion of the Hoosier state welcomed an increasing number of new residents who constitute a broad and diverse cross section of world citizens. This book features portraits of 30 newcomers from around the world, along with stories of why they came to the area. |
| Synopsis: |
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 Crossroads" features 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. |
