The exhibition, For All the World to See: Visual Culture and the Struggle for Civil Rights, examines the influence of visual culture and images like that of Emmett Till in shaping and transforming the struggle for racial equality by showing the world the realities of segregation and racial violence, inspiring activists, and fostering African American pride and the Black Power movement. Funding will support humanities programs that will supplement the exhibition.
