Wayne Flynt, the revered Auburn University historian, compared the images to the work of Margaret Bourke-White and Walker Evans. Speaking as a viewer: the photos are powerful, capturing the kind but careworn faces of these men and women. bit.ly/3iqDtMH

New: One afternoon in May 1966, an Auburn student snapped pictures of Draketown, one of the city’s three Black communities. The images are a rare contemporary document of a Black working-class neighborhood in Alabama — one that’s now gone. bit.ly/3iqDtMH #alpolitics
