The photographs contained within the Roland L. Freeman – Portfolio span from 1969-1985. These images were culled from hundreds of published and unpublished photographs made by the photographer. It is a visual testament to the spirit and resilience of the Black communities in the South. These twelve photographs speak to the cultural diversity and regional traditions of Black American life – from the rural countryside to the urban city centers of the South.
