When Billy Woodberry investigates a series of disturbing archival photographs, he learns they were taken in Angola during the Portuguese “pacification campaign” of 1907. He wrote, “I sought to unleash the violent movements to conquer captured in the photographs, while assigning frequency to the sounds and cries of a defeated world the photographs bear, and project forward into the tumultuous future of the twentieth century Africa.”
