Through images taken by Rasmussen across dozens of states—
introducing him to hundreds of people along the way—and essays by renowned legal scholar Frank
H. Wu, the book seeks to provoke thought and conversation around the complicated nature of
American identity.
‘The Good Citizen does not pretend to provide answers,’ says Rasmussen,“This is not a polemic, a
textbook or a political tract. Rather, it is a series of images and essays that seek to provoke thought
and conversation around the complicated nature of American identity.’
Benjamin Rasmussen is a Faroese/American photographer who grew up in the Philippines and
moved to the United States as an adult. The Good Citizen work grew out of his journey to try and
understand his own American identity. Over the past decade and a half his work has appeared
within the pages of publications from Time to National Geographic to Vanity Fair and has been
exhibited widely.
Rasmussen’s collaborator on this project is renowned legal scholar Frank H. Wu. In 2020, Wu was
appointed as President of Queens College of the City University of New York. He was a professor
of law at Howard University Law School for a decade and during that time wrote Yellow: Race in
America Beyond Black and White.
