“Reclamation: The American Cowboy” commemorates the Great Migration. This event denotes the relocation of approximately six million African Americans from the South to cities in the North, like Chicago. “Reclamation’ “hopes to reclaim the idea of the American Cowboy as something created for us, by us, while paying homage to southern artist Solange.
