Civil rights activist Stokely Carmichael said 53 years ago, “One of the most disturbing things about almost all white supporters of the movement has been that they are afraid to go into their own communities — which is where the racism exists — and work to get rid of it.” Some took Carmichael’s words as inspiration to organize against racism. In that spirit, curator Daniel Tucker asked contemporary artists and poets to create work related to 1960s civil rights activism. “Organize Your Own,” a traveling exhibition, did not originate in Louisville but has local ties: Tucker is from Louisville, and UofL’s Anne Braden Institute for Social Justice Research has videos in the exhibition.
