Race, Representation & Photography in 19th-Century Memphis:
from Slavery to Jim Crow presents a rich interpretation of African
American visual culture. Using Victorian era photographs,
engravings, and pictorial illustrations from local and national
archives, this unique study examines intersections of race and
image within the context of early African American communities. It
emphasizes black agency, looking at how African Americans in
Memphis manipulated the power of photography in the creation of
free identities. Blacks are at the center of a study that brings to
light how wide-ranging practices of photography were linked to
racialized experiences in the American south following the Civil
War. Jenkins' book connects the social history of photography with
the fields of visual culture, art history, southern studies,
gender, and critical race studies.
