In a world characterised by rampant commercialism, where worth is measured in financial value and moral cruelty towards the vulnerable has become the norm, Gavin Scott Whitfield is a brave new voice. His work seeks to empower the powerless, give a voice to the disenfranchised, and peer into dark corners that society shamefully would rather bury and gloss over.
