“Imagery & Its Power” is a presentation about the original
use of the N-word in its historical context using visuals, DVDs,
and a PowerPoint presentation to engage youth and adults
in an open, honest, and historically revealing interactive
discussion.
The purpose of this effective presentation is to critically
analyze history, propaganda, media manipulation, and
past/present-day caricatures in understanding why some of
us dislike ourselves, continuously distrust one another, and
kill each other so easily.
