Love Is Powerful
“A powerful and timely book that promotes love, equality, activism, and fighting for change for a better future.” —Brightly Mari raised her sign for everyone to see. Even though she was small and the crowd was very big, and she didn’t think anyone would hear, she called out her message. Mari is getting ready to make a sign with crayon as the streets below her fill up with people. “What are we making, Mama?” she asks. “A message for the world,” Mama says. “How will the whole world hear?” Mari wonders. “They’ll hear,” says Mama, “because love is powerful.” Inspired by a girl who participated in the January 2017 Women’s March in New York City, Heather Dean Brewer’s simple and uplifting story, delightfully illustrated by LeUyen Pham, is a reminder of what young people can do to promote change and equality at a time when our country is divided by politics, race, gender, and religion.

Decolonization and Diversity in Contemporary Photography
Focusing on fine art and documentary photography, this book provides a racially diverse and culturally inclusive version of photography history and its contemporary manifestations. Who’s documenting the evolution of photography as it is happening now from an inclusive, transnational perspective? This is the challenge this book aims to address. The collection is the print manifestation of the Dodge and Burn art photography blog actively published from 2007 to 2018, including a selection of 35 interviews with photographers and art professionals from underrepresented communities—those of African, Asian, Latinx/é and Native American heritage. It captures fascinating accounts of artists of color and the broad range of their challenges and successes: aspirations, photo series and photobooks, earning a living, discrimination, photography education, photographic practice, socio-political conversations, and more. Decolonization and Diversity in Contemporary Photography is a powerful collection that celebrates and exhibits the talents of underrepresented artists. It is essential reading for both photography students and aspiring photographers.
