Somnyama Ngonyama, salut à toi, lionne noire! (Signed)

In Faces and Phases: 2006–14 (2014), Zanele Muholi embarks on a journey of "visual activism" to ensure black queer and transgender visibility. Taken over the past eight years, the more than 250 portraits in this book, accompanied by moving testimonies, present a compelling statement about the lives and struggles of these individuals. They also comprise an unprecedented and invaluable archive: marking, mapping and preserving an often invisible community for posterity.
