Still Raising Hell

The Art, Activism, and Archives of Camille Billops and James V. Hatch
September 15, 2016 - May 28, 2017
| Robert W. Woodruff Library
- Level 3
- Schatten Gallery

"This exhibition reflects on this dynamic couple's commitment to speak truth to power and explores the meaning and purpose of African American art." 

As artists, activists, and collectors, Billops and Hatch have been raising hell for more than 50 years - elevating public consciousness around "isms" that have shaped American culture, politics, and identities. Since 2002 the Stuart A. Rose Manuscript, Archives and Rare Book Library has been home to the comprehensive collection - playscripts, photographs, works of art, and more - of these two leading stewards of African American history.
