Meet the young, cool, and modern Next Gen of Haiti! Photo by @fotokonbit student Harry Jean Louis whose favorite kind of photography is portraiture. Though they be young and cool, the next generation of Haitians never forget their cultural traditions that have gotten their country through multiple challenges, especially after the 2010 earthquake that killed over 350,000 people and left at one million people homeless. Getting back up on their feet, young Haitians long to be part of a larger world but they want the world to see the Haiti they see daily, so different from the Haiti portrayed in headline news. Fotokonbit students shot all the photos for a story on Haiti in the December 2015 issue of @natgeo magazine entitled HAITI ON ITS OWN TERMS.
