This image is a black and white photographic reproduction of a diptych, displayed on a wall, within a location in the city of Venice, Italy. The **left panel** depicts a historical photograph from October 1919. At the center, two deceased Black men, bare-chested with white cloths draped around their lower torsos, hang from a stout vertical wooden pole or tree trunk. A third deceased Black man lies on the dark, possibly muddy ground at the base of the pole, partially covered by a white cloth. Surrounding these figures is a crowd of approximately two dozen white men, many wearing hats or caps, gazing intently at the scene. Handwritten white text in the upper left corner reads: "THREE NEGROES LYNCHED AT DULUTH, MINN. FOR RAPE OCT. 1919 BY - M.P.S." The environment appears to be an outdoor urban setting, with a street light visible in the background. The **right panel** presents a photograph of multiple armed Black individuals. Approximately nine individuals are visible, with their eyes obscured by horizontal black bars. Several are holding firearms, including shotguns and handguns. Some individuals are making distinct hand gestures. One individual wears a dark cap with partially visible white lettering that appears to read "GANGSTERS." The figures are dressed in casual clothing, and some display afro hairstyles. The background is dark and indistinct. The collective stance and display of weaponry suggest a posture of defiance or power.
