content: A print by Sekou Cooke as part of the collage studies from “We Outchea: Hip-Hop Fabrications and Public Space.” The print is black and white with two structures and a sky with clouds as the background. On the left is a four-story structure with outlines of a person on the each of the top two floors. Next to it is a two-story structure with orange components. The top floor of this smaller structure depicts four women, two sitting in salon-like chairs and two standing behind them. On the first floor, one person is inside and one person is on the stoop of the smaller structure. There are two other people at the bottom of the stoop. To the far right is an orange component with a child presumably writing on the floor. In the top right corner, large white text reads [“THIS RESULTED IN SLATING THE / AREA FOR TOTAL CLEARANCE. AS AN / AFTERTHOUGHT THE PROBLEM OF / RELOCATION WAS CONSIDERED.”]. Screen printed over the print is a blueprint, presumably of Pioneer Homes, in a dark color ink. The street name [MONROE ST] is visibly printed upside down at the center of the print. The artist signed the print in the front, lower right corner in graphite: [S Cooke 2020 / AP].
