Throughout history in free and democratic societies freedom of speech has been highly held as a vital right for all, regardless of background or stance. Time and again, a community has banded together to make a stand for their beliefs by demonstrating, rioting and otherwise doing whatever it takes to make the authorities pay attention. From the Gay Liberation Front marches that helped gain the LGBTQ community more rights and anti-nuclear campaigns like that at Greenham Common, to the chaos of the London riots following the murder of Mark Duggan and more recently the protests of 2017's Day of Rage in London, to follow the history of protest is to create a vivid history of the concerns and downright outrage of the British people. Here, using Mirrorpix's formidable image archive, photographs of some of the most important protests in British history create a complex tapestry of public outrage and demands over more than a century. Often overlooked by historians in favour of the Establishment's view of an issue, the images herein give a stark, true portrayal of the lengths the common person would go to in order to make sure their voice was heard.

African Photographer J. A. Green: Reimagining the Indigenous and the Colonial
<p>J. A. Green (1873-1905) was one of the most prolific and accomplished indigenous photographers to be active in West Africa. This beautiful book celebrates Green's photographs and opens a new chapter in the early photographic history of Africa. Soon after photography reached the west coast of Africa in the 1840s, the technology and the resultant images were disseminated widely, appealing to African elites, European residents, and travelers to the region. Responding to the need for more photographs, expatriate and indigenous photographers began working along the coasts, particularly in major harbor towns. Green, whose identity remained hidden behind his English surname, maintained a photography business in Bonny along the Niger Delta. His work covered a wide range of themes including portraiture, scenes of daily and ritual life, commerce, and building. Martha G. Anderson, Lisa Aronson, and the contributors have uncovered 350 of Green's images in archives, publications, and even albums that celebrated colonial achievements. This landmark book unifies these dispersed images and presents a history of the photographer and the area in which he worked.</p>
