Bruce Davidson - Time of Change: Civil Rights Photographs Lecture May 22, 2007

In 1961 Bruce Davidson joined a group of Freedom Riders, marking the beginning of his exploration into the heart of the Civil Rights Movement. His journey later included an early Malcolm X rally in Harlem, steel workers in Chicago, a Ku Klux Klan cross burning near Atlanta, migrant farm camps in South Carolina, protest demonstrations in Birmingham, and the heroic Selma march that led to the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Davidson's lyrical images are both poignant and profound as they describe the prevailing mood during the Civil Rights era.

Opening Reception: May 17, 6pm - 8pm
