Abstract
Question Like a Face, by Christine Hume (text) and Jeff Clark (photographs), looks at gender violence and complicity within the intimate and immediate interiors of a small city in Michigan. Like any tale of power, this one begins with the careless dismissal of a whole life. Compelled by the constantly defaced and reappearing face of a black woman shot by a white cop, whose image is affixed to walls around her community, Hume summons her visage as a call to outrage against her own complacency and against the silence surrounding our culture’s unending violence against women, especially women of color.
