Description
It's another week and time for another show and again something completely different. You can see how my choice of guests is influenced by events and people around me!
Recently I have talked about the point of looking for with my guests and choosing them for a reason. It's something that has played on my mind recently and how I should open up more. The consensus in my mind (we had a vote) is that I should look for people that haven't had their voices heard from the minorities or speak to those that are trying to do great work for the society of those not privileged.
So today I'm pleased to bring you the rather lovely Sheila Pree Bright. Sheila is an ambassador for Leica, comes from America and has this habit of using the world of photography to talk about the world from a different perspective. Some of her projects include Young Americans, 1960NOW, Suburbia, Plastic Bodies. We talk a lot about the life of being black in America, opportunities and what she has seen. Some of her travels around the states have even shocked her, so listen out for when we discuss Baltimore.
So in this one, we discuss:
art piece for University of Boston
starting with gangster rap photography
1960 now + uprising of young people
civil rights
working for HBO
protests
flowers &COVID
white narrative vs black
John Lewis & your poetry
school curriculums
Migrations & segregations
FURTHER INFO
We discussed Jim Crow
