Samenvatting

Double Exposure is a major new series based on the remarkable photography collection held by the Earl W. and Amanda Stafford Center for African American Media Arts at the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC), Washington, D.C.. From daguerreotype portraits taken before the Civil War, to twenty-first century digital prints, Double Exposure is a striking visual record of key historical events, cultural touchstones, and private and communal moments, that helps to illuminate African American life. Volume 2 commemorates the ongoing fight to fulfil the promise of freedom and equality for all American citizens, from the Civil War and Reconstruction to the present. It features powerful images from, for example, Leonard Freed's series, Black in White America, Ernest C. Withers photographs of the Sanitation Workers' Solidarity March in Nashville and Charles Moore's documentation of police brutality during the 1963 Birmingham Childrens' Crusade, AUTHOR: John Lewis is an American politician and civil rights leader who has served in the U.S. Congress since 1987. Former Chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), Lewis is considered an important leader of the civil rights movement.

Bryan Stevenson is Executive Director and Founder of the Equal Justice Initiative (EJI), a private, nonprofit law organization that focuses in the context of criminal justice reform in the United States. In 1995, he was awarded the prestigious MacArthur Fellowship Award Prize. He is also a 1989 recipient of the Reebok Human Rights Award, the 1991 ACLU National Medal of Liberty, the 2000 Olaf Palme Prize in Stockholm, Sweden for international human rights.

Hoe controleren en plaatsen wij reviews? Hoe controleren en plaatsen wij reviews?

Negatief, positief, neutraal: we zetten een review altijd online. We controleren wel eerst of ’ie voldoet aan onze reviewvoorwaarden en niet nep is. We controleren ook of ’ie is geschreven door iemand die het artikel heeft gekocht via bol.com en zetten dit er dan bij. De controles gebeuren automatisch, al kijken er soms mensen mee. Bol.com betaalt niet voor reviews. Als een reviewer door een andere partij is vergoed, staat dit in de review zelf.
