Overview

John Akomfrah: The Hour Of The Dog is an immersive, six-channel video installation by the British artist Sir John Akomfrah. The work, co-commissioned by the Menil Collection and the Baltimore Museum of Art (BMA), explores the history of youth-led Civil Rights–era activism in the American South from 1954 to 1963, and how the participants fought for racial equity through nonviolent marches, protests, boycotts, and voter registration efforts.

Directed by John Akomfrah
