  • 13 JULY 2012 - FT DEFIANCE, AZ:  A Navajo veteran of the US Marine Corps salutes during the veterans' service at the 23rd annual Navajo Nation Camp Meeting in Ft. Defiance, north of Window Rock, AZ, on the Navajo reservation. Preachers from across the Navajo Nation, and the western US, come to Navajo Nation Camp Meeting to preach an evangelical form of Christianity. Evangelical Christians make up a growing part of the reservation - there are now more than a hundred camp meetings and tent revivals on the reservation every year. The camp meeting in Ft. Defiance draws nearly 200 people each night of its six day run. Many of the attendees convert to evangelical Christianity from traditional Navajo beliefs, Catholicism or Mormonism. "Camp meetings" are a form of Protestant Christian religious services originating in Britain and once common in rural parts of the United States. People would travel a great distance to a particular site to camp out, listen to itinerant preachers, and pray. This suited the rural life, before cars and highways were common, because rural areas often lacked traditional churches. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ

  • 06 NOVEMBER 2020 - DES MOINES, IOWA: DOUG, a US Marine Corps veteran of Operation Desert Storm, asks for help along the side of a freeway entrance in Des Moines. Doug, who can't work because he is on 100 percent disability, said his Veterans' Administration benefits covered his rent and most of his car payment but it didn't leave enough for car insurance or food so he asks for help along the freeway entrance. He said he visits two or three emergency pantries per week to get enough food to get by. Food insecurity in the Des Moines area has skyrocketed since the start of the Coronavirus pandemic. Although unemployment rates in Iowa have fallen since a peak in June, many families that fell behind on rent are now facing eviction. A food bank spokesperson said use of the Food Bank's emergency pantries and distribution points is still increasing.    PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
