REMEMBERING A PAINFUL PAST

PLEASE NOTE: THIS STORY CONTAINS VIOLENT PHOTOGRAPHS AND SHOULD NOT BE VIEWED BY YOUNG CHILDREN.

Horrifically violent. Shockingly brutal. Gut wrenching. It is an in-your-face reminder of a painful era.... Photographs of African American males being lynched and being attacked by vicious dogs during the Civil Right movement... These haunting images make you deeply uncomfortable. As you see them walking eastbound down 125th between 7th and 8th Avenue (Frederick Douglass Blvd), you cannot help but look and reflect.

And, that is exactly the intention of Sutek Amunra, the vendor who displays them.

allthingsharlem.com and the National Black Programming Consortium asked Mr. Anumra, why he is showing them, and what he wanted people to do with after viewing.

Hear his answer.
