Jen's answer was revolutionary to the core when she said she makes a policy of getting involved and not pretending to be objective. She correctly pointed out that the act of her filming is subjective and makes qualitative changes to a situation by her mere presence. As for not involving oneself in a situation for fear of becoming too subjective, we say to get involved too. While a picture, film or any piece of documentary art can be used to educate in the future, a person always has the responsibility to involve themselves in whatever they think is unjust, on whatever level, and take responsibility for that involvement or lack thereof. The eternal struggle of the bourgeoisie press to be objective is a lie anyway.
All news is subjective.
We must acknowledge our role in reporting stories in a way that will best educate and organize people for a better tomorrow. For our role is not just to record history but to change it.
