About this event
November 30. 2026. Fredric Jameson Gallery. GUEST TALK. BLACK COTTON U.S. Featuring Julius Tillery. For five generations, the Tillery family has worked the land of Northeastern NC. Black Cotton U.S. asks us to look at the familiar crop - to see beyond the commodity and consider the history, labor, beauty, and lives connected to it. Join us as Julius shares his story and invites us into a conversation about cotton, land, family, and the future of farming.
