StrudelmediaLive presents Christopher Gregory-Rivera with Christian Rodriguez

In this StrudelmediaLive photo lecture, photographer Christopher Gregory-Rivera's photo lecture about his project "Las Carpetas," which examines the bureaucratic residue of a 40-year secret surveillance program by the Puerto Rican Police Department and the FBI that aimed to destroy the Puerto Rican Independence Movement and civil rights movements in the U.S. Colony. Through still lifes, archival appropriation, and investigation — including photographing the contents of the surveillance files — Christopher provides a counter-history to the way many people understand this period of time and its aftermath.
