Set in the South early in the twentieth century, these photographs bridge a distance not only of time but also of contrasting attitudes and customs. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe images show African Americans in or around Columbia, Beaufort, and Hilton Head, South Carolina. Some photographs were taken in surroundings where blacks might associate with whites--out of necessity and according to strict custom. Most of the images, however, are set in \"colored sections\" or other remote areas of town and country where blacks were obliged to fashion lives apart. Under segregation and disenfranchisement, men, women, and children are portrayed in ordinary occupations and pursuits: a peddler selling his wares, a woman tying a toddler's shoes, a barber and his young apprentice taking a break outside their shop. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJulian Dimock, whose works appeared often in major travel and nature magazines, took the photographs in 1904-5. So many photographers of the era tended to romanticize or politicize their African American subjects; Dimock was different. Signs of want and inequity are plain to see in these images, but Dimock portrays his subjects as they really were in all of their dignity, strength, and beauty.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Julian Anthony Dimock\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0820324248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780820324241\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Georgia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.13lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.71h x 10.31w x 0.81d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/20\/2002 pg. 24\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2003 pg. 975\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eMulticultural Review\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2003 pg. 73","brand":"Julian Anthony Dimock","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44120341283071,"sku":"9780820324241","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3936de6d-a41c-4c1d-a4a8-e4f46ac815de.jpg?v=1687413799","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/camera-mans-journey-julian-anthony-dimock-9780820324241","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
