Dignity #3 by Erik Saastad

Seems like I copied Inges idea from friday. The fact is that we did not know how the other was to try to capture dignity. Even if a few things are written by Inge already, I just keep what I intended to write about mine:

In Oslo we have a magazine called =Oslo. It is based on a social businessmodel from in England and Usa, and the magazine is sold by drug addicts and homeless people. The salesmen keep half the amount as profit. Giving a job to people with no options is giving them more than a job. It's giving them back their dignity.


So, did we capture Dignity?

I am not sure.

Dylan is probably still right in his phrase "Dignity never been photographed".
At least we tried, and probably we will keep trying.



Searchin' high, searchin' low

Searchin' everywhere I know

Askin' the cops wherever I go

Have you seen dignity?
