While articles and the language they use is essential, it took away the faces of the crisis and the affective dimension of reporting, which is equally as important. To construct this map, I used a map from another site and cropped out everything but the Rohingya migration routes. I then superimposed images from the photo essay from Reuters that was published on May 19th titled “Asia’s New Boat People.” I also adjusted the opacity of these photos to reflect their invisibility in numerous places. They are an invisible people in Myanmar because they cannot be officially recognized, and the coverage on their conditions wavers in the news. There may be bouts of more coverage, but even after the discovery of mass graves, the number of articles did not exceed ten per day. At times, there was no coverage at all.
