[#BLACKPHOTOGRAPHY] #BlackPower50 Presented by @schomburgcenter Currently on view Schomburg Center | 515 Malcolm X Blvd. New York, NY Admission: FREE
In the first of two onsite Black Power 50 exhibitions celebrating 50 years of the Black Power movement, Black Power! examines the concept introduced by Stokely Carmichael and fellow Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) worker Willie Ricks in June 1966. A visual history told through 115 images including photographs and posters, 55 documents and material culture including correspondence, flyers, newsletters, buttons, and other archival material, and documentary video featuring footage from the era, clips from Blaxploitation films, and music, Black Power! explores the multiform and ideologically diverse movement that shaped black consciousness and identity and left an immense legacy that continues to inform the contemporary American landscape.

[#BlackPower50 #BLACKART] Black Power 50 Pop-Up Display Currently on view @schomburgcenter | 515 Malcolm X Blvd. New York, NY
As part of our yearlong exploration of 50 years of the Black Power Movement (which includes our two-part digital exhibition), we’ve assembled a preview of what you can expect from our Black Power 50 exhibition, which will be presented in February 2017 in two galleries.
This pop-up display is on view in our front lobby in the windows adjacent to the recently renovated Schomburg Shop. There you will find an introduction to the show, which includes provocative photographs that resonate with both the movement and its relevance in today’s political climate.
Don’t forget to also take home our Black Power 50 card as a takeaway reminder of our expanded exhibition coming this winter!

"What brought about the Young Lords was not only the 1960s. It was our history. It was our history going back to the Yorubas. It was our history being kidnapped from Africa and brought to the Caribbean. It was centuries in the making."
Watch more highlights from our post-screening discussion of the documentary, ¡Palante, Siempre Palante! here.
Don't miss our final #BlackPower50 program of the season, a screening of ¡Palante, Siempre Palante!, directed by Iris Morales, who makes history come alive as veterans of the Young Lords movement recall their fight for equality, jobs, health care, and education.
