Video Description
In this edition of A Democracy Minute, artist and photographer LaToya Ruby Frazier reflects on the power of images to reshape our understanding of American history. Her work capturing a Black veteran, landowner, and Tennessee walking horse rider reveals a story long excluded from dominant narratives. It’s a reminder that photography can shift power: by choosing what and who we see, we also shape who we believe ourselves to be. Watch, share, and keep the conversation going.
