A modern version of the African-American protest anthem “We Shall Overcome” played over a slideshow of photos from “After Selma” photographer Joshua Rashaad McFadden. His collection was displayed in the Carlson Gallery until Oct. 14.
Concluding the lecture on Tuesday, photographer Joshua Rashaad McFadden autographs books and pictures in the Campus Center Ballroom before attending the gallery reception in the Carlson Gallery.
“Faith,” a photo from “After Selma” captures the emotion of an original foot soldier who marched again with the new generation 50 years later. The photography series compares the march from Selma to Montgomery in 1965 to the recent oppression of black people.
