African-American artist Kara Walker (born 1969) has been acclaimed internationally for her candid investigations of race, sexuality and violence through the lens of reconceived historical tropes. This publication documents ‘Dust Jackets for the Niggerati –and Supporting Dissertations, Drawings Submitted Ruefully by Dr. Kara E. Walker’, a major series of graphite drawings and hand-printed texts on paper that grew out of Walker’s attempts to understand how interpersonal and geopolitical powers are asserted through the lives of individuals.
