Exhibits: Who Is In And Who Is Out
Friday, May 3, 2019 – Saturday, April 22, 2019
by Yisa Akinbolaji
"Let us all be involved in improving our society: In North America, newcomers, refugees, indigenous people, the underprivileged - all of these groups have at different times been labelled as 'other' and have been overlooked or isoloated. In the current social climate of North America, a great deal of suspicion and fear has arisen regarding the other. This solo exhitibiont, Who Is In And Who Is Out draws attention to the documents what was once only silent discrimination and now has become an increasingly open dialogue being played out in the media and in communities around us."
