Contact is taking a holiday!

Contact is taking a break after 25 years of bringing you news of Tibet and Tibetan issues. We are celebrating our 25 years by bringing you the story of Contact and the people who have made it happen, and our archive is still there for you to access at any time, and below you can read the story of Contact, how it came into being and the wonderful reflections of the people who have made it happen over the years.

When and how Contact will re-emerge and evolve will be determined by those who become involved.

Photos of the Homeless

August 12, 2015;

Photographs of homeless people in New York are being taken by police union members and posted online in a Flickr album. The union says they want to bring attention to an increase in “quality-of-life offenses” in the city and are also photographing other offenses such as people urinating in public or engaging in open-air drug activity. The city’s homeless population has risen in recent years to about 75,000.
