Ama Kyereme, Mattison Bond, Brandee Newkirk

Exploring the intersections of art, documentary, and social justice, panelists Mattison Bond, Movement History Initiative Coordinator, and Brandee Newkirk, Art, Art History & Visual Studies PhD candidate, are in conversation with Ama Kyereme, the exhibit curator and intern for the Archive of Documentary Arts, to discuss the nature of representation of student activism and the social reverberations and political implications of the photographs. Expanding the conversation into present day, the discussion examines the role of the camera in not only documenting the moment, but also in promoting movement and social action.
