Ambivalent co-editor Patricia Hayes (DSI/NRF SARChI Chair in Visual History and Theory at the CHR) and contributors George Emeka Agbo and Ingrid Masondo will give a virtual tour of selected images and ideas in the book, delving into the ambivalence of seeing in Africa and the implications of writing about seeing. CHR Next Generation Scholar Lwando Scott will moderate the conversation.
Ambivalent: Photography and Visibility in African History (Ohio University Press) is edited by Patricia Hayes and Gary Minkley (SARChI Chair in Social Change at the University of Fort Hare).
The CHR fellowship programme will continue in 2022 through online platforms and, where permitted, limited live events hosted in compliance with COVID-19 protocols. Please follow our events page for updates about events.
