"This work reconstructs a KKK motorcade that the FBI linked to the murder of the civil rights worker Viola Liuzzo on March 25, 1965. The car that carried Liuzzo's killers participated in a 93-car motorcade organized by the United Clans of America, Inc. that traveled through Montgomery on March 21 as a counter-demonstration against the Selma March. Auto classifieds were used to find photographs corresponding to each specific description (year, make, model and color) of the KKK affiliated vehicles identified in FBI documents. A panoramic retracing of the parade route was created using Google Map based on the KKK's parade permit that is also included in the book"--Artist's statement, bookseller's website. This project was completed with support from a Puffin Foundation Grant." Digital print on Moab Enhanced Velvet 255. Issued in an edition of 15, 2 artist's proofs, and 1 handling copy.
