Celebrating Black History Through the Digital Lens

“The Walking Brunch”

A variety of savory brunch options prepared by Chef Larry Harrison intended to be enjoyed as you walk through the digital exhibit!

During the Transatlantic Slave Trade, millions of African men, women, and children were kidnapped and sold into captivity in North America and South America. An estimate of two million died during the brutal voyage across the Atlantic Ocean. Though enslavement existed in other parts of the world, the unique system that developed in the United States became a racialized caste system rooted in a false, violent and persistent ideas of racial difference.

The stories of enslaved Black people have been uniquely shared throughout history and the journey continues to evolve.

Join IPCA as we share dramatic stories of Black History through a digital experience. Starting from the Transatlantic Slave Trade to stories as recent as Black Lives Matter can be experienced in a digitally artistic form. At the end of the “walk-through” enjoy the digital tribute to the African American artists who impacted the art world.
