Visual Culture Scholar Nick Mirzoeff publishes “We Are All Children of Algeria” using Scalar

ANVC is excited to partner with Duke University Press in the launch of Nicholas Mirzoeff’s “We Are All Children of Algeria: Visuality and Countervisuality 1954-2011,” a digital extension of his recent book The Right to Look: A Counterhistory of Visuality. Mirzoeff began this project as part of an NEH Summer Institute at USC. In it, he develops and supplements the second half of chapter six of The Right to Look, which looks at cinema in revolutionary Algeria (1954-2011). The piece offers the opportunity to see the films and other visual materials discussed in that chapter and to develop the Algeria connections between the decolonial revolutions of the postwar period and the Arab Spring. For an introduction to the piece, visit the Duke UP blog.
