PORTRAIT OF A GENERATION: One of the images

THERE ARE just three more weeks to visit and take in the Lost Legacies of the British Black Panthers exhibition taking place in south London.

Hosted over two Brixton locations, Photofusion and 198 Contemporary Arts and Learning, Lost Legacies of the British Black Panthers showcases photographs that evidence the struggles of the Windrush Generation as told through the photography of Neil Kenlock.

A show about community activism in Brixton during the 1970s and ‘80s, as well as leadership in a time of adversity, the dual site exhibition tells a story and history through portraits and civil protest photography.

STRUGGLE

Photofusion displays portraits of the civil rights leaders, lawyers, activists and community icons of the time, while 198 hosts images of defining moments in the history of the civil rights struggle.

Each site, at its core, represents the hopes and hardships of a generation. In direct honour of the British Black Panthers, exhibition visitors can ride, walk, rail or bus down the former frontline of Railton Road to observe the collection in its two parts.

The exhibition is at 198 Contemporary Arts & Learning Monday - Friday, 11am - 5pm, and at Photofusion Monday - Saturday, 10am - 6pm.
