Explore the stunning, moving, and exciting work of visual artist-activist Zanele Muholi

Born in South Africa in 1972, Zanele Muholi came to prominence in the early 2000s with photographs that sought to envision black lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer, and intersex lives beyond deviance or victimhood. Muholi’s work challenges hetero-patriarchal ideologies and representations, presenting the participants in their photographs as confident and beautiful individuals bravely existing in the face of prejudice, intolerance, and, frequently, violence. While Muholi’s intimate photographs of others launched their international career, their intense self-portraits solidified it. The illustrations include images from the key series Muholi has produced over the past 20 years, as well as never-before-published and recent works. This book, and the exhibition it accompanies, present the full breadth of Muholi’s photographic and activist practice.

Read Detailed Book Description


The problems of the black community have for too long been the topic of forums, books, sermons, and political agendas that concluded with perpetual plans of future forums, books, sermons, and political agendas with no concrete plans of actions to halt the profuse bleeding that ensures the demise of the poor. In Martin Luther King BullAvoid: Imploding Communities, author Etta B. Harbin provides practical solutions to the myriad of problems that plague boulevard residents. According to the author, the billion-dollar efforts of outside entities to infuse equitability have failed to demolish the barriers that preclude income equality, closure of academic gaps, and judicial fairness because the root cause of the problem is embedded within the community. It is Etta’s position that external entities can assist, but never solve problems that are of internal origin. With occasional poetic rhythm, rhyme, history, and always a gist of humor, she provides ten practical solutions that guarantee the uplifting of the community as she moves from a problem-centered approach to a people-centered solution.

BOOK EXCERPT

My Story

Having just finished building our house and being in the most debt that we’d ever been in, in our lives, I thought I’d better start looking for a job to get some income to add to my husband’s. As a qualified accountant with a first degree in Maths and an MBA, I figured that it shouldn’t be that difficult for me to find a job.

I remember looking through the newspapers and thinking, Oh, good, someone wants a financial controller—I can do that! Wait a minute, it’s a hotel, and they want someone with experience in the hotel industry, which I don’t have. Here’s another one, a non-governmental organization wants someone with an MBA. I have an MBA—oh, but I have no experience in gender development.

This went on for several weeks. I would see a job in the newspaper that on the surface I had the qualifications for but not the experience. That’s one of the drawbacks of working as a consultant—you work with all different types of businesses, but you don’t become an expert in any!

I was beginning to get seriously depressed! I really wanted to help my husband with our debts so that he would not be under so much pressure. Our house wasn’t even completely finished, although we had moved in. There was still stuff to be done.

I began to wonder how other people were coping. Those people who didn’t even have any qualifications or experience. How did they find jobs? Even if they did have a job, how did they deal with their financial crises?

Then one day, after looking through the newspapers again, one of my favorite Bible stories dropped into my mind. Right away I went and looked it up and read through it again. It was called “The Widow’s Oil” ….
