Telling a People's Story: African-American Children's Illustrated Literature
Oxford
The first major museum exhibition devoted to the art found within the pages of African-American children's picture books emphasizes the strength of the illustrations as visual narrative representations of the African-American experience. While aspects of social justice are shown, the exhibition goes beyond providing a look into the struggles of African-Americans. This project celebrates the complex and diverse African-American experience through a lens intended for children and young readers.
