This publication documents 'Dust Jackets for the Niggerati –and Supporting Dissertations, Drawings Submitted Ruefully by Dr. Kara E. Walker', a major series of graphite drawings and hand-printed texts on paper that grew out of Walker’s attempts to understand how interpersonal and geopolitical powers are asserted through the lives of individuals.
