The March

This digital exhibition is the result of a collaborative project led by David A. Frank (Professor of Rhetoric and Mellon Faculty Fellow), UO Libraries, and the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art, with support from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The March is a documentary by filmmaker James Blue about the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom in August of 1963.

You Must Never Look Away From This

This exhibit in the Design Library highlights artists’ books that relate to themes in this year’s common reading selection, Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates. The books on view address race, identity, privilege, capitalism, education, diaspora, and family – as lived, studied, observed, and expressed by a variety of artists.
