Hello! Most part of my life I've lived in Moscow, Russia. I wanted to become an interpreter, but changed many occupations. I spend all my spare time shooting films. Currently I live in a decent neighborhood next to two cats. I am open for collaboration and have ideas for a couple of new pictures. Feel free to contact me via e-mail: john714@yandex.ru
Today there is such thing as stigma in our society. Stigma is a negative association of a person with something «non-prestigious» or «repulsive». Social stigma is the disapproval of a person based on physical or behavioral characteristics that distinguish them from others. In most cases, stigma is associated with a lack of knowledge about the condemned phenomenon. To fight stigma, we, first of all, must develop our knowledge in order to avoid falling into primitive stereotypes.
