At Segregated Drinking Fountain
Photographed in 1956 by Gordon Parks (1912-2006)
The Gordon Parks Foundation
In the episode, we take a look at our first photograph on the podcast – Gordon Parks’ image from 1956 entitled At Segregated Drinking Fountain.
In the summer of 1956, Life Magazine sent Gordon Parks to Alabama to document Black Americans living under Jim Crow laws in the South. Twenty-six of his images from this assignment appeared in the September 24th, 1956 issue of Life Magazine in a photo essay called “The Restraints – Open and Hidden”.
The photographs of Gordon Parks have an enduring power. Through quiet moments of dignity, he documented people who refused to be dehumanized. The gentleness of Parks’ photographs became persuasive acts of protest against injustice
At Segregated Drinking Fountain features Liz Lidgett Gallery artist Roma Osowo. Ten Minute Masterpieces is hosted by art advisor Liz Lidgett and produced by Maribeth Romslo.
