Sumaya Agha is an American photographer of Syrian descent, who has among other things spent several years documenting the lives of Syrian refugees in camps and in transit. There's a continuity in her work with families across multiple years, as with young brothers Amir and Ibrahim in 2013 and in 2015.

The horror of what 6 decades of Western political interference in the Middle East, from coups and bombings to UN support of despots, are becoming apparent.

When you destroy the societies of poor people, they will seek refuge.

Ending the overseas military adventures of our government is paramount to normalization of relations with Russia, China and the Middle East.

I went to prep school with Sumaya and her brother Laith.
