In approximately 1970 the main popularity was the white western communities. Many producers, designers, writers, poets and other form of artists were challenged to show different perspectives of different cultures and residencies. Many things that got questioned was things such as:
'Why do we have blind spots to cultural racism?'
'What do we deny in cultures?'
'Who makes representations?'
We were then shown imagery from all around the world and through different era's the images below, are from the powerpoint we were shown within the lecture.
