Abstract

News photographs of Black bodies, victimized in the public sphere, are well known sources of twentieth-century US historiography. However, they blot out both the violence Black women experienced, and their activism. By focusing on three women - Ida B. Wells (1862-1931), Mamie Till Mobley (1921-2003), and Diamond Reynolds (1990) - and analysing their social and visual interventions into narratives of race-based violence and the history of the violent gaze are, and how Black women rejected the subjectifying gaze through their sophisticated use of social media.
