|
|
(Named a Best Book of 2000 by the Washington Post Book World and Los Angeles Times) Featuring the work of such master photographers as James VanDerZee, Gordon Parks, and Carrie Mae Weems, among dozens of others, this book is a remarkable and stirring exploration of everyday African American experiences. Nearly 600 images, most of them duotone reproductions, offer glimpses of black life from the slavery era through the Great Migration to contemporary suburban life, including rare antebellum daguerreotypes, photojournalism of the civil rights era, and portraits of middle-class families; taken together, they offer new perspectives on African American heritage and our country's history. "All at once, Reflections in Black is history, narrative, a personal and public record, cultural anthropology and family album.... It is a sweeping documentation of a diverse people's collective cultural vision and voice."—Washington Post Book World
