Photography has often been used to document and catalogue—through a white-centric viewpoint—the histories of communities that were deemed foreign. Within the art world, this has been amplified, and we have frequently seen marginalized people as no more than props in a historical archive. This course examines the visual iterations of marginalized people throughout history. Beyond combing through these histories, we work to reclaim this colonized gaze and change the narrative of archival photography. Students are encouraged to think outside the box of the expectations of archival photography.
