Light Work Board Member Brings "Breach of Peace" to Syracuse

Eric Etheridge and Glen Lewis

Light Work board member Glen Lewis was instrumental in bringing to Syracuse Eric Etheridge’s “Breach of Peace,” an exhibit based on his book of the same name.

Published in 2008, Breach of Peace juxtaposes mug shots of the 1961 Freedom Riders with contemporary images and excerpts of interviews. The Freedom Riders were American men and women, black and white, who traveled by bus to the South to protest the segregation of buses and bus stations that was then illegal but still being enforced.

“Breach of Peace” is at ArtRage Gallery until February 27.
