Picture where photographer committed suicide shortly after? About Famine

[AgaBoogaBoo]

There was a picture that won an award of a child in another country who was dragging himself to a shelter to get some food but some crows got him instead or something.... 🙁

I realize it's a sad picture... anyone have it? 🙁

I know which photo you are talking about. It's the one with a child on her hands and knees about to die from hunger. Not too far away, there is a crow waiting for a feast.

My patriotism doesn't weigh as much as my sympathy. That just doesn't do it for me.

Plus it was staged.
