R.A.C.E. Matters SLO — Belonging 2021
Look up to see new banners downtown, installed as part a multi-location event from R.A.C.E. Matters SLO called “We Are Here.” This portrait photography project by former Cuesta student and seven-year San Luis Obispo resident Eric Deshawn Lerma, is inspired by Frederick Douglass, the most photographed person of the nineteenth century, who saw in portraiture an avenue for reclaiming Black dignity.
