Rahim Fortune: Hardtack
In his new book, Hardtack, Rahim Fortune compiles nearly a decade of work, blending documentary with personal history within the context of post-emancipation America. Through coming-of-age portraits that traverse survivalism and land migration, Fortune illustrates African American and Chickasaw Nation communities. As Taous Dahmani observes, the iconography of the American South is drawn between Fortune’s Hardtack and Beyonce’s Cowboy Carter, released only a few days after — both of which raise questions that serve to redefine ‘Americana’.
