Gordon Parks’ Testimony of Black Life in America

Originally Published in 1971, Gordon Park’s Born Black was the first book to unite both Parks’ writing and photography. The book focused on Park’s work documenting a crucial decade for both Civil Rights and Black Power movements. A new expanded edition and an exhibition reveal previously unpublished photographs, archival material, and new scholarly essays.
