In Listening to Images Tina M. Campt explores a fashion of listening heavily to images, enticing with misplaced data of traditionally pushed aside images of black matters taken through the black diaspora. enticing with photos via sound, Campt seems past what one often sees and attunes her senses to the opposite affective frequencies wherein those pictures sign up. She hears in those photos—which diversity from overdue nineteenth-century ethnographic photos of rural African ladies and images taken in an early twentieth-century Cape city felony to postwar passport pictures in Birmingham, England and Sixties mug photographs of the liberty Riders—a quiet depth and quotidian practices of refusal. initially meant to dehumanize, police, and limit their matters, those photos exhibit the softly humming pressure of colonialism, the low hum of resistance and subversion, and the anticipation and function of a destiny that has but to ensue. enticing with discourses of fugitivity, black futurity, and black feminist conception, Campt takes those instruments of colonialism and repurposes them, listening to and sharing their moments of refusal, rupture, and imagination.
