2019 Rocket Grant recipient These Walls will exhibit photographs made by fourteen fast-food and low-wage workers, taken in the course of their lives working for billion dollar companies while struggling on poverty wages. The Langston Hughes Club provides opportunities for workers to team up with professional artists, so that their images will become powerful resources in the fight for change.
