Folks of Minnesota strives to show all parts of humanity that many individuals do not care to think about or often notice at first glance. As a society, we choose what we want to see and through these photographs and written word, the viewer is confronted with community members and parts of the human condition that are not always pleasant or socially accepted.

By meeting people right where they are at in life, Folks of Minnesota captures their truths, even if their truths are not socially accepted. These stories that you read are from the perspective of that person, shared through their lens. By principle, Folks of Minnesota will not silence others by taking down stories. Folks of Minnesota will not partake in censorship.

Folks of Minnesota captures stories from all walks of life, regardless of how that person chooses to live their life. It is very difficult to be fully inclusive in a society that is filled with painful truths. By striving to capture all parts of humanity, messiness will occur. Humans are messy and we each have a story. We are our stories.
