This digital restoration project, developed in collaboration with Black Perspectives, focuses on the Black presence in DOCUMERICA, a landmark photography project organized by the Environmental Protection Agency during the 1970s.
This project aimed to collect images of Ebony magazine covers into a single digital archive on Flickr by the magazine's 75th anniversary in 2020.
I'm still missing a few covers, but to my knowledge this collection represents the most complete digital catalogue of Ebony covers available anywhere on the internet.
To date, the images in this collection have been viewed more than 50,000 times.

This companion site for my Leverhulme Early Career project includes a range of photo-essays, maps, and other resources about the building history of the Black press.
