Black History Month: Tyler Mitchell

For today’s post honoring Black History Month, we present I Can Make You Feel Good by Tyler Mitchell, a candy-colored dreamscape juxtaposed by representations and experiences of reality, published in London by Prestel Publishing Ltd in 2020. The renowned 25-year-old photographer shot to stardom with Beyonce’s Vogue cover in September 2018 as the first Black photographer to shoot for the cover, as well as one of the youngest, with one portrait from this collection later acquired by the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery in 2019 as part of their permanent collection. 

I Can Make You Feel Good is a culmination of Mitchell’s 5-year body of photography and film with his first solo US exhibition at the International Center of Photography in New York. The 206-page testament to Mitchell’s signature style, including the use of natural lighting and rich colors, presents a perspective not often seen: Black people photographed as the fluidly natural centerpiece of the photographic gaze. Mitchell creates a world in which the subjects of the photos are the center of the universe, a luxury exclusively offered to white people throughout the history of photography. Even the images that veer closer to avant-garde photography carry an element of effortlessness, of stumbling across these images in nature rather than carefully framing each aspect of the image to create that feeling.

Repeated Rapist and Former Baylor frat president Jacob Anderson indicted for sexual assault will serve no jail time, not be registered as sex offender and only has to pay $400 fine

Anderson was accused of raping a 19-year-old woman at a 2016 off-campus party his fraternity, Phi Delta Theta, threw under his leadership as frat president. During the party, 

Anderson took the woman, who was intoxicated after receiving a drugged drink from him, outside to a “secluded part of the grounds” where he then sexually assaulted as while she was gagged and choked. The victim lost consciousness during the attack, at which point Anderson left the scene, leaving her nearly choking to death on her own vomit.

Anderson was initially brought up on for these alleged crimes, and charged him with “unlawful restraint” instead, for which the office recommended three years of probation, a $400 fine, and counseling.

This is the 3rd case in which this same judge has been lenient towards sexual offenders.
