(Photo by Joel Van Houdt, founding contributor, Razistan) Last year, the war in Afghanistan accounted for roughly two percent of the news content published in the United States. Razistan is a new subject-driven outlet that aims to help give Afghanistan the attention it demands. Razistan is powered by Thread’s nonprofit platform. Razistan’s core project is a website of unique photo essays and short video documentaries that bring into vivid relief not only the war and its participants but also the country and its people. Contributors include both award-winning Kabul-based photojournalists from around the world and local Afghan photographers and videographers. There is much more to the war than the mainstream media has shown. The purpose of Razistan—or "land of secrets”—is to reveal these untold stories.
