An article in the @GuardianBooks today by @alisonflood illustrates exactly why @MagnumPhotos continues to have a child exploitation scandal. The acclaimed author Louis de Bernières writes about child sexual abuse that took place in his school:

Photography is a part of who I am but seeing photographers exploit vulnerable people to get a story like this makes me want hang up my camera. He bought drugs for a homeless man so he could photograph him high. So wrong.

Honestly the most brazen, profound exploitation of a vulnerable person I've ever encountered. Deeply, deeply disturbing. Why do people celebrate this? Why is he lauded? youtube.com/watch?v=hpL6It…

@unvisible_f @_marksalmon @kiell He buys drugs for an extremely vulnerable man. Gets him completely off his face to photograph him. Sooner or later. Unless he gets help. That guy is likely to OD and die. Exploitation. Who are the much worse photogs? Please name them. We should all know.

Hey @VICEUK Next time can you ask him what he was doing shooting naked boys in a school swimming pool where one of the UK's most notorious child abusers went to teach? Magnum have been happy to sell and promote the photo but won't say. duckrabbit.info/blog/2021/01/o…

.@MagnumPhotos photographer Chris Steele-Perkins made four trips to Afghanistan during the 1990s to document a country that was being taken hold of by the Taliban.

@kiell He paid for his drugs to photograph the results? And got the strongest available? I feel sick.

The moment when an actual British legend, Baroness Floella Benjamin, reads up on how @MagnumPhotos have been exploiting children overseas and says no. ❤️❤️❤️

Everyone should be alarmed by this scandalous article and should want their voice of concern to be heard if you truly care about stopping horrific #childsexabuse @GreenfordBlog @DCMS @johnc1912 @IWFhotline @OliverDowden @MagnumPhotos @BBCNews

@FloellaBenjamin 1/2 Hello Floella, I know you get asked to look at a lot of things but I hope you will read this and tell your MP that the CEO of Magnum must answer questions before the DCMS committee. This is a long distressing read by @duckrabbitblog duckrabbit.info/blog/2021/01/o…

@FloellaBenjamin @GreenfordBlog @DCMS @johnc1912 @IWFhotline @OliverDowden @magnumphotos @BBCNews Thank you so much Dame Floella for raising your voice. Quite a number of people have been campaigning for six months to highlight child exploitation at @magnumphotos. Some good steps have been taken. But broadly the industry continues to be in denial about this issue.

I got to speak. I just saw the list of Magnum photogs on show at @formatfestival and I had a real surge of anger. I can give examples of abusive work relating to seven of them. Mostly relating to vulnerable children. Why don't you take that seriously @PeterRBonnell?

#Photoland needs to step up and address this. To the spineless lickspittles that put their careers and bank balances before the human rights of the very people they claim to ‘champion’ ... you’re fooling no one. Something any amount of corporate PR will not fix. #PhotoEthics

What line would an agency have to cross to stop you from wanting to promote their work @PeterRBonnell? Does that line even exist? Because without it, kids got abused. A lot of them. By Magnum. Not ours mind. Foreign ones. @formatfestival

The issue around how best to support survivors of sexual and child abuse is currently being widely ignored within #BritishPhotography. Almost as if by ignoring it, ‘it’ ceases to exit. #PhotoEthics

I really value the work @formatfestival do to create opportunities for non- #palemalestale artists like myself. I’m grateful to be part of this years festival BUT am left grappling with my conscience. @MagnumPhotos are listed as partners. Sigh. Whyyy? 😩

Racism. Misogyny. Child exploitation. Sexual predation. Outing of child survivors of sexual abuse. Outing of children who are HIV positive. All documented. Why don't you take that seriously @PeterRBonnell?
