Spelman art exhibit dares to redefine the history of American slavery

"There is a kind of energy that emanates from the objects," says Liz Andrews, director of the Spelman Museum of Fine Art. That energy fuels "Repossessions," the museum’s latest exhibition, where six artists transform artifacts from America’s past to dive deeper into conversations about slavery, reparations and Black history. UATL reporter Brooke Howard joins Andrews to explore how art reframes our past — and shapes our future. Credits: Brooke Leigh Howard/AJC
