These years of conflict reveal several aspects of racial anxiety that inform our contemporary experience, including, though not limited to; racism, fear of violent black revolt, lynching, poverty, mass incarceration, and competition for employment. The term \u201cRed Summer\u201d was first used by James Weldon Johnson to describe the violent attacks against black communities during 1919. \r\n\r\nThough the events of the early twentieth century seem to be remote and fading apparitions of an American past; my work is concerned with the power and influence of our shared historical narrative upon the present. The upheaval of Red Summer occurred approximately fifty years after the American Civil War, fifty years before the height of the Civil Rights Era, and three centuries after the first enslaved Africans arrived in English colonies that would become the United States. \r\n\r\nThe project combines photographs of the contemporary landscape made at or near the site of racial conflict with fragmented selections of contemporaneous newspaper reporting (1917-1923). In many cases, the newsprint images include the surrounding stories or advertisements. The combination of the landscape photograph and the reproduction of newspaper fragments (which invade the contemporary with a narrative from the past), is a rupture and a conversation on the timeline between past and present.", "occurrence_notes":"Enter through East University Ave. Open to the public.", "guid":"131383-21868330@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/131383", "building_id":"1000054", "building_name":"East Quadrangle", "campus_maps_id":"54", "room":"RC Art Gallery", "location_name":"East Quadrangle", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Ann Arbor","Art","artists","arts","arts at michigan","Exhibition","free","Visual Arts"], "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/rc\/reserve-a-room-\/rc-art-gallery.html", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Residential College", "group_id":"1029", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/01\/event_131383_original-1.png", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/01\/crop-event_131383_original-1.png", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/01\/crop-event_131383_original-1.png", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/01\/crop-event_131383_original-1.png", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/01\/crop-event_131383_original-1.png", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/01\/crop-event_131383_original-1.png", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/01\/crop-event_131383_original-1.png", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/01\/crop-event_131383_original-1.png", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/01\/crop-event_131383_original-1.png", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/01\/crop-event_131383_original-1.png", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/01\/crop-event_131383_original-1.png", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/01\/crop-event_131383_original-1.png", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/01\/crop-event_131383_original-1.png", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/01\/crop-event_131383_original-1.png", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/01\/crop-event_131383_original-1.png", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/01\/crop-event_131383_original-1.png" }, "occurrence_count":34, "first_occurrence":21868321 } , "129585-21863706": { "datetime_modified":"20241203T104657", "datetime_start":"20250117T090000", "datetime_end":"20250117T200000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-01-17", "date_end":"2025-01-17", "time_start":"09:00:00", "time_end":"20:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Exhibition", "event_type_id":"7", "description":"View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses, which, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship.
