XHIBIT P Presents: Artists In Residence (The Body Exhibition pt.2)

In this "Artists in Residence" episode, Professor Zoe Spencer speaks about the importance of contextualizing the images of black women that are portrayed in the media, reminding everyone to "know your history." Watch as Zoe effortlessly touches on video vixens and the modern day explotation/celebration of the "black booty," while giving us a history lesson on the origins of the hypersexualization of the black women in Western society.
