Do you judge people by the way they look? Garry Cook's Outsiders is
a series of interviews and portrait photographs with the unique,
unusual and misunderstood. This collection of profiles examines how
we judge others through prejudice, appearance and ignorance.
Travelling across several continents for this project, Cook has
compiled a fascinating insight into human experience and
behaviours, while also covering major social issues including
religion, war, sex and paedophilia. Quotes from Outsiders: 'They
came at us with spears crying 'argghhhhh ' 'People see a Muslim
woman and you can see all the word association flashing through
their minds: Bin Laden, terrorism.' 'My Thai wife paid someone to
push me off a third story balcony.' 'I was on fire but I couldn't
see much, the flash had burned my eyes. Just thought I'm going to
die.' 'If you're going to dedicate your life to serving yourself,
and your lust, God hates you. That's what the Bible says.' 'I don't
regret the relationships, only the sexual part of it.' 'Some of my
friends in Israel, they don't see the Palestinians as humans.'
