In Black Meme, Legacy Russell examines the evolution of the meme as a foundational element of Black visual culture from 1900 to the present day. By analyzing archival materials alongside contemporary digital media, the author argues that Black contributions are essential to the structure of modern internet culture. The text interrogates the ownership of Black imagery, the politics of representation, and the historical impact of viral documentation on civil rights and public discourse.
