Mike Graeme (he/him) is a cis white settler photojournalist of Scottish, English, and Irish descent. Aware his privilege stems from a system built on colonialism, white supremacy, heteropatriarchy, and other connected forms of oppression, Mike seeks to collaborate in the work of illuminating and dismantling these structures, helping to uplift the stories of those at the centre of injustice.
