[20] It has also contributed to the recognition of Black photographers, presenting a posthumous exhibition in 2024 of Ray Francis, a founding member of the Kamoinge Workshop known for prioritizing education over producing work, and a retrospective in 2023 of Chester Higgins' five decades of documenting notable figures in Black diasporic culture. The latter was curated by Deborah Willis, a prominent scholar in African-American art and photography. [21] [22]
