The right to...

2011

Please scroll down to see all of the pictures.​

Artists from Oregon and from Illinois, exchanged handwritten notes celebrating rights. For many, who have grown up in institutions and travel in segregated buses from one staffed institution to another, this was the first time they were asked to speak about rights. Some spoke of simple moments of perceived freedom they are thankful for, and others demanded rights not allotted to them.
