Join the authors and a special delegation from Ecuador to discuss and view the "Crude Reflections" photo exhibit.

Photographers Lou Dematteis and Kayana Szymczak took their cameras into Ecuador's Amazon rainforest and brought back images of the exquisite beauty of the land and its indigenous peoples. They also brought back a darker perspective--shocking images of the devastating effects of Texaco's (now Chevron) oil extraction practices, both on the environment and on the people who inhabit the region. In the face of disease, death, and the contamination of their land, here is a document of the Ecuadoran peoples' front-line fight for environmental justice and their heroic struggle to save their rainforest.

"Crude Reflections tells a harrowing tale through the eyes of two photographers hell bent on saving the heart of the world. Lou Dematteis and Kayana Szymczak take no prisoners with this potent book."
--Donna Ferrato, author of Living with the Enemy
