There is a great exhibit at the National Portrait Gallery of African American Portraits. The exhibit highlights different African Americans throughout the ages. The exhibit does a great job putting you in the era. Seeing the progression of BW images to color is amazing. There are images from W.E.B. Du Bois to Gordon Parks to Wynton Marsalis. The cropping of the photographs captures the personalities and the times. The photographers establish an identity of all their subjects.
If you love photographs I recommend this exhibit.
