Liberated Threads: Stories of Black Style, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Exploring fashion and style as a political language and tool of resistance in the African diaspora.

Aperture 's Summer issue highlights image makers around the world who are exploring style and fashion as a language of Black resistance, refusal, and joy. Guest edited by the writer and researcher Tanisha C. Ford and titled after her 2015 book, Liberated Threads , this edition features photographers, stylists, and filmmakers who remix, reimagine, and in some cases, reject the aesthetic and politics of what she calls the "soul style" of the twentieth century--sparking a bold conversation about style's ability to create possibilities for solidarity and selfhood today.
