Brown Bag: Kimn Carlton-Smith, “Black Agency and the Photographic Image”

Brown Bag talk.
Kimn Carlton Smith, Black Agency and the Photographic Image: Resisting and Reappropriating the Imagery of Lynching.
Thursday, November 16
12 pm
Room N007, Delta Main Campus.

Join us for a Brown Bag presentation by Kimn Carlton-Smith of Kendall College of Art and Design of Ferris State University

Inspired by the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement, Dr Carlton-Smith explores the past for insights into Black agency and resistance to state-sanctioned violence. Her talk will focus on the 1934 Rope Protest where Howard University students staged a powerful anti-lynching protest in Washington, DC. She will visually analyze images from the protest to show how the protesters reclaimed power by reappropriating the imagery of lynching. Little attention has been given to the Rope Protest; however, it anticipates symbolic protest tactics used by the Civil Rights and BLM movements
