A poignant collection of 150 photographs, "Camera Man's Journey" takes us to a place at once familiar and foreign.

Some photographs were taken in surroundings where blacks might associate with whites--out of necessity and according to strict custom. Most of the images, however, are set in "colored sections" or other remote areas of town and...
