Event Details

A Photo Story by Cornell Watson

A student in cap and gown standing barefoot next to a crumbling gravestone. Four generations of a family seated in their historic home. Barricades surrounding a campus monument. These are just some of the powerful images in Cornell Watson's Tarred Healing. The exhibit, which debuted in The Washington Post and has garnered national attention, consists of fourteen large-scale photographs and accompanying narratives that reflect the experiences of Chapel Hill’s Black community, past and present, on campus and in the community.
