Imprisoned in a luminous glare : photography and the African American freedom struggle / by Raiford, Leigh.(CARDINAL)280653;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 261-281) and index.No relation to the facts about lynching -- Come let us build a new world together -- Attacked first by sight -- Conclusion : Or was it the pictures that made her unrecognizable?In Imprisoned in a Luminous Glare, Leigh Raiford argues that over the past one hundred years activists in the black freedom struggle have used photographic imagery both to gain political recognition and to develop a different visual vocabulary about black lives. Raiford analyzes why activists chose photography over other media, explores the doubts some individuals had about the strategies, and shows how photography became an increasingly effective, if complex, tool in representing black political interests.Offering readings of the use of photography in the antilynching movement, the civil rights movement, and the black power movement, Raiford focuses on key transformations in technology, society, and politics to understand the evolution of photography's deployment in capturing white oppression, black resistance, and African American life. By putting photography at the center of the long African American freedom struggle, Raiford also explores how the recirculation of these indelible images in political campaigns and art exhibits both adds to and complicates our memory of the events. --Book Jacket.

Editors, K.A. Miille, Matthew Cohn ; composers, Vernon Reid ; additional music and opening theme composed and performed by Miles Jay ; director of photography, Martina Radwan.Participants: Lyle Ashton Harris, Robin Kelly, Hank Willis Thomas.Inspired by Deborah Willis's book, "Reflections in Black," Through a Lens Darkly casts a broad net that begins with filmmaker Thomas Allen Harris's family album. It considers the difference between black photographers who use the camera to define themselves, their people, and their culture and some white photographers who, historically, have demeaned African-Americans through racist imagery. The film embraces both historical material (African-Americans who were slaves, who fought in the Civil War, were victims of lynchings, or were pivotal in the Civil Rights Movement) and contemporary images made by such luminaries as Roy DeCarava, Gordon Parks, and Carrie Mae Weems. The film is a cornucopia of Americana that reveals deeply disturbing truths about the history of race relations while expressing joyous, life-affirming sentiments about the ability of artists and amateurs alike to assert their identity through the photographic lens.DVD; NTSC; widescreen presentation; 5.1 surround, 2.0 stereo.Sundance Film Festival, official selection; Africa Movie Academy Awards, winner

Includes bibliographical references (pages 309-316) and index.Simply put, the history of American manifest destiny is written in blood and paved with ghosts: those of Native Americans, slaves, war casualties, and countless others caught in the crosshairs of our nation's "progress." Between the trauma, bloody wars, everyday violence, and the threat (always) of nuclear annihilation, a culture of the supernatural has long been part of our heritage. This quirky book is the exhibition catalogue for "the first major assessment of the supernatural in American art." As such, it studies works from the nineteenth century to the present day, works by artists exploring all manner of things spooky from séances to UFO sightings to possession to the ghosts that stalk our battlefields, lynching sites, and the space of other unhappy adventures. The exhibition itself promises to be strong-minded and colorful. Many of the artworks on the walls and in the pages of the catalogue are captivating, creepy, or occasionally just plain silly as they explore contacts between the living and the uncanny.

Matilda has decidedly less success with her personal affairs, continuing to pine for Dr. Daniel Lynch even as she begins a new romance. But while Matildas love life hits a snag, she makes headway in the case of her mothers long-ago disappearance despite her aunts best efforts to conceal the secret she most wants to know.Rating: Not rated ; "Contains violence and disturbing images"--Container.DVD, widescreen (16:9) presentation, Dolby Digital stereo.
