Getty Images, a preeminent global visual content creator and marketplace today launched the Black History & Culture Collection (BHCC), an initiative created to provide free non-commercial access to historical and cultural images of the African/Black Diaspora in the US and UK from the 19th century to present day. The collection aims to grant access to rarely seen images for educators, academics, researchers, and content creators, enabling them to tell untold stories around Black culture.
Tisch DPI Chair Dr. Deborah Willis was among prestigious historians and educators partnering with Getty Images to curate Black History & Culture Collection.
The Black History & Culture Collection was carefully curated from content owned by Getty Images, in partnership with internationally recognised researchers, historians and educators, including Dr. Deborah Willis of NYU Tisch School of the Arts, Jina DuVernay of Clark Atlanta University, Dr. Tukufu Zuberi of the University of Pennsylvania, and Dr. Mark Sealy MBE and Renée Mussai of Autograph (UK).
