Devin Allen is a self-taught artist, born and raised in west Baltimore. He gained national attention when his photograph of the Baltimore Uprising was published on the cover of TimeMagazine in May 2015-only the third time the work of an amateur photographer had been featured. Five years later, after the death of George Floyd, Tony McDade, and Breonna Taylor, his photograph from a BlackTrans Lives Matter protest was published on the cover of Time magazine in June 2020. He is winner of the 2017 Gordon Parks Foundation Fellowship. Also in 2017, he was nominated for an NAACP Image Award as a debut author for his book A Beautiful Ghetto. His photographs have been published in New York Magazine, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and Aperture and are also in the permanent collections of the National Museum of African American History & Culture in Washington, D.C., the Reginald F. Lewis Museum, and the Studio Museum in Harlem. He is the founder of Through Their Eyes, a youth photography educational program, and recipient of an Award from The Maryland Commission on African American History and Culture for dynamic leadership in the Arts and Activism. He lives in Baltimore.
These [photos], presented without captions and taken more than 50 years apart, allude to the decades-long struggle that Black people in America have waged to be seen, heard and treated with dignity. They confront the viewer with the grim reality of how little has changed since the civil rights movement laid the groundwork for challenging police brutality. But the pairings also ask what has changed and, more importantly, how we might continue to ride the momentum of the racial justice protests that have gripped the nation in recent years to create a more just, equitable and free world. --NPR No Justice, No Peace offers readers an intimate perspective on the fight for justice through photos and narratives. --Baltimore Sun An urgent, intense collection worth buying for the photos alone. --Kirkus
