DJ Spooky: Civil Rights Unbound

The World

Throughout the last century, the struggle of the civil rights movement has been documented in photos, speeches, poems and paintings. Paul Miller, a.k.a. DJ Spooky, mixed clips from the long history of the civil rights movement and created a digital media collage that was commissioned specifically for the NAACP’s centennial. It’s called, “Winds of Change: A Composition and Homage to the NAACP on 100 Years of Change.” The Takeaway talks to DJ Spooky about his work.
