Last November, artist Dread Scott staged the Slave Rebellion Reenactment — a large scale recreation of the 1811 German Coast Uprising, the largest revolt of enslaved people in U.S. history. Reenactors marched twenty miles along the east coast of the Mississippi River, past former plantations and chemical refineries, to finally end in New Orleans’ Congo Square. “You can’t understand America if you don’t understand slavery,” Scott said. “And you can’t understand slavery if you don’t know that slave revolts were constant.”
I’m offering the six prints below — all photos will be printed on Hahnemühle Torchon archival paper, with an 8x8in image size on 10x10in paper. Limited edition of 25, unsigned.
All proceeds will go to the Black Visions Collective + the Minnesota Freedom Fund in solidarity with Minneapolis’ Black community grieving in the wake of the police killing of George Floyd.
