Overview

Eli Reed is one of America’s leading black photojournalists, becoming in 1988 the first black to be elected to the prestigious photojournalists’ cooperative Magnum. After studying political science, urban affairs, and the prospects for peace in Central America at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, Reed photographed in El Salvador, Guatemala and other American countries. This catalog documents a different subject: the major events in the life of our nation, including the L.A. riots, the Million Man March and Reed’s concerns with urban unrest, homelessness, racism and equality.
