Freedom and Confinement

Freedom and Confinement

Elizabeth Gordon McKim; Reginald Dwayne Betts

UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH PRESS
2026
pokkari
Freedom and Confinement is a powerful, book-length conversation between poets Elizabeth Gordon McKim and Etheridge Knight, recorded in 1990 as Knight was dying of cancer. The interview traces Knight’s life from his childhood in Paducah, Kentucky, to his time in the Army and his injury in Korea, to his drug addiction and incarceration, and finally, to his poetic rebirth. The dialogue includes a 1984 exchange with McKim’s daughter, Jenifer McKim, offering a rare intergenerational glimpse into Knight’s world. McKim captures the man behind the legend—complex, contradictory, soulful. From prison yards to the Library of Congress, Knight lived and performed poetry across the country. This conversation revives his stories and energies, blending trickster wit with hard-won wisdom, making the mythic poet vividly human once more.

Galveston's Juneteenth Story: And Still We Rise

Galveston's Juneteenth Story: And Still We Rise

W. Dwayne Jones; Galveston Historical Fdn; Tommie Boudreaux

History Press
2024
nidottu
Galveston was the birthplace of Juneteenth. Issued in Galveston on June 19, 1865, General Orders, No. 3 announced to the people of Texas that all slaves were free. It is one of the Island's most important historical moments. Although Juneteenth has now become the basis for a national holiday, many Americans wonder how and why this date emerged as the basis for the oldest continually celebrated commemoration of the end of slavery. To even begin to answer these questions, it is necessary to return to the historic roots of the event itself. The Galveston Historical Foundation's African American Heritage Committee tracks Emancipation Day observances through previously unknown images and untold stories which are also part of an interactive exhibit experience at Ashton Villa, the site of Galveston's city-wide Juneteenth celebration.

Nigel Poor: The San Quentin Project

Nigel Poor: The San Quentin Project

Nigel Poor; Reginald Dwayne Betts; Mesro Coles-El

Aperture
2021
sidottu
The San Quentin Project collects a largely unseen visual record of daily life inside one of America’s oldest and largest prisons, demonstrating how this archive of the state is now being used to teach visual literacy and process the experience of incarceration. In 2011, Nigel Poor—artist, educator, and cocreator of the acclaimed podcast Ear Hustle—began teaching a history of photography class through the Prison University Project at San Quentin State Prison. Neither books nor cameras were allowed into the facility, so an unorthodox course with a range of inventivemapping exercises ensued: students crafted “verbal photographs” of memories for which they had no visual documentation, and annotated iconic images from different artists. After the first semester, Poor says, “one student told me he could now see fascination everywhere in San Quentin.” When Poor received access to thousands of negatives in the prison’s archive, made by corrections officers of a former era, these images of San Quentin’s everyday occurrences soon became launchpads for her students’ keen observations. From the banal to the brutal, to distinct moments of respite, the pictures in this archive gave those who were involved in the project the opportunity to share their stories and reflections on incarceration.
