“saved” is an elegy -- a collaborative project with artists, musicians, photographers, filmmakers, arts organizations and the local community. Participants gather together to reenact the original documentary photograph that captured the townspeople of Okemah witnessing the aftermath of the lynching of Laura Nelson and her fourteen year old son, L.D.

"With “saved,” kara lynch seeks to restore humanity and dignity to Laura and L.D. Nelson."
