Photographs, audio recordings, footage and mixed media from the Jan. 21 Memphis and Washington, D.C., Women’s Marches combine in Inaugurate the Resistance to create an immersive and participatory experience at Crosstown Arts in Midtown May 3-8.


Collaborating artists include photographer Yolanda James, Joann Self Selvidge (True Story Pictures), and Sara Kaye Larson (Maps & Weather Productions), with support from co-curators Leah Keys (Spillit), and Jamie Harmon (Amurica).


Memphians are invited to contribute their photographs for the storytelling wall, and on both opening and closing nights, organizers will record interviews with Women's March participants to share on Storycorps.me. These interviews will be donated to the Crossroads to Freedom Digital Archive at Rhodes College and to the Library of Congress. Submit photos here.
