A MOVEMENT IN WORDS AND IMAGES Award-winning photographer Devin
Allen has devoted the last six years to documenting the protests of
the Black Lives Matter movement, from its early days in Baltimore,
Maryland, up to the present day. The riveting images in No Justice,
No Peace provide a lens on the resistance that has empowered Black
lives generation after generation. Allen's signature
black-and-white photos bear witness to the profound history of
African Americans and allies in the fight for social justice and
portray the collective action over decades in stunning, timeless
portraits. Allen's remarkable photos of today's Black Lives Matter
protests, which have been featured in the New York Times, the
Washington Post, and twice on the cover of Time magazine, were
inspired by Gordon Parks of the Civil Rights Movement, and create a
vision of the past and future of Black activism and leadership in
America. With contributions from twenty-six bestselling and
influential writers and activists of today such as Clint Smith,
DeRay Mckesson, D. Watkins, Jacqueline Woodson, Emmanuel Acho,
Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor, and more, alongside the words of past
writers and activists such as Martin Luther King Jr, Frederick
Douglass, Malcolm X, Maya Angelou, and John Lewis, No Justice, No
Peace is a reminder of the moral responsibility of Americans to
break unjust laws and take direct action. In words and pictures, No
Justice, No Peace honors the connection between activism today and
that of the past. If indeed hindsight is 20/20, this artistic look
back is a lens on history that enlarges our understanding of the
lasting predicament of racism in the United States of America. At
once deeply intimate and profoundly uplifting, No Justice, No Peace
is a visual tribute to Black resistance and a stern missive on the
tough, but necessary, road that lies ahead.
