Communal Resurrection: The Soul of a Community.
Work by Steve Prince

The Communal Resurrection exhibit chronicles the progression of Black music from the fields to hip-hop. The series reveals how the music made from the wealth that they had, became a balm for people whose names, culture, and God's were under siege through the stultifying system of America capitalism. Each image is laden with symbolism to craft a narrative of resistance, survival, and creativity in the face of hegemony. Communal Resurrection is America's story of how a people made a way out of no way and transformed the world with a sound that could not be silenced!
