'Ferguson Voices: Disrupting the Frame' traveling photo exhibit

'Ferguson Voices: Disrupting the Frame' traveling photo exhibit

GRANVILLE, Ohio — Denison University presents “Ferguson Voices: Disrupting the Frame,” a traveling photo exhibit emerging from the University of Dayton’s Human Rights Center and PROOF: Media for Social Justice, on display from Monday, Feb. 5, to Friday, Feb. 23, in the atrium of the William Howard Doane Library (400 West Loop). A panel talk with University of Dayton staff and students who curated the exhibit will take place at 4:30 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 12, in the library atrium. These events are free and open to the public. For more information, contact the Denison Museum at 740-587-6255,museum@denison.edu, or visit Denison.edu.

“Ferguson Voices” is part of the Moral Courage Project, a team of University of Dayton students and program coordinators who conducted oral history research in Ferguson, Mo., in May 2016. Featuring powerful portraits and compelling audio recordings of the events from people in the community, the exhibit provides critical texture to the story of Ferguson by focusing on profiles that fracture the dominant narrative. “Ferguson Voices” highlights the contributions of average people who found the courage to stand up during moments of unrest.

The exhibit is sponsored by Denison’s Programs in Narrative Nonfiction Writing and Black Studies, Denison Library, and Denison Museum.
