Freedom & Justice
Four Decades of the Civil Rights Struggle As Seen by a Black Photographer of the Deep South
Macon, GA : Mercer University Press, 1995.
Format: Book
Description: 247 pages : illustrations ; 24 x 31 cm
"This is a photographic journey back into the legally segregated world in which I grew up. A world entirely shaped by race and color. This book is an eyewitness account of many sociological events having a direct impact on my life. These events also affected the lives of millions of blacks and whites, especially those who lived in the Deep South. My pictures most often salute the unknown people who put their lives on the line to confront and change a system of segregation and racism. At a time when our nation still struggles with the issue of race, hopefully this book will promote racial harmony and the need for acceptance shared by all people, despite their racial, ethnic, and religious heritage".
