Telling My Story... at the Edge of Recovery by Mara Jevera Fulmer Pdf
This art exhibition catalog accompanies Telling My Story at the Edge of Recovery from Homelessness, an art exhibition and educational forum that explores the journey of recovery by eight older African American women from homelessness in Detroit. It combines the creation of coneptual portraits by international artist/writer/scholar Mara Jevera Fulmer, with research activities by Drs. Olivia G.M. Washington and David P. Moxley and the TMS participants' personal perspectives and captured issues in their own words and frames of reference. As a result, it is hoped that it will lead to a greater understanding of the serious nature of this social problem in the United States, as well as to developing potential solutions and approaches to its prevention.
