Africa Forum #6 is "Photography and Colonial Vision"
presented by Associate Professor Paul Landau, Department of
History, Yale University <paul.landau-AT-yale.edu>

The essay is now on the web at

http://h-net2.msu.edu/~africa/africaforum/Landau.html

and the email version will soon appear on the H-Africa list.

This is a fascinating and challenging topic and the editors
hope that it will stimulate debate on a wide range of themes
such as colonialism, the representations of Africans, and
how visual iconography, and especially photography, was
related to colonialism in Africa through the imposition of
stereotypes, identity, ideology, and control.
