7 Photo Stories That Will Challenge Your View Of The World

This week, we finally published a long-in-coming visual investigation into all the people who are involved in caregiving for gunshot victims. As gun violence rates rise with warmer weather, we wanted to take a look at the frontline workers who are most affected. It turns out there are a lot of them — don't miss this gorgeous project by James Sprankle.

We explored the realities of having an abortion in the United States, a topic that is more heated on screens and in the streets than in the actual exam room. Reuters also did a poignant dive into the daily hustle of one doctor who travels to make sure that women can receive the care they need.

On a much lighter note, CNN's interview with celebrity photographer David Yarrow is a delight, and we are grateful to both the Guardian, for bringing us the best food photos, and the Atlantic, for bringing us to the streets of Carnival. Finally, our intern exceeded all expectations with his thoughtful and thorough oral history of the legacy of the LA riots, which happened 30 years ago this week.
