Emory Douglas

When looking into the history of print from the white western perspective within my dissertation. It focuses on etchings and satirist because that was the way opinions, both popular and alternative where usually displayed through penny dreadfuls, individual prints, posters or within news papers.

With the history of print from a black western ideal. It tends to be lowfy or the use of Lino printing as a method of crafted protest. Emory Douglas's work tho, mainly media and stencil based did us lino printing methods as well. His work was a call to arms and a voice for the voiceless.

Similarly my work aims to give a voice to the voiceless. However rather than a call to arms it's a call to acknowledge Britain's slave past.
