The Dark Room is an interdisciplinary working group of scholars interested in theories of visuality and theories of racial formation.   In this roundtable each feminist scholar will select an image and interpret it in relation to its archive.  With Nikki Greene, Irene Mata, Kimberly Juanita Brown, and Sandy Alexandre.
