Aperture’s Photobook Review on Daufuskie Island

“With Daufuskie Island, Moutoussamy-Ashe teaches us how to behold the living: a living land, a living people, and the potential that always remains to make a world anew.” —Jovonna Jones

In the Photobook Review Issue #018, Fall 2020 by Aperture, guest edited by Deborah Willis, Jovonna Jones writes about the 25th anniversary edition Daufuskie Island: Photographs by Jeanne Moutoussamy-Ashe noting how it helped Jones “to understand Blackness as both body and land, and the toll that capitalism takes on both.”
