The book 'The House That Herman Built' documents the collaborative project between artist Jackie Sumell and Herman Wallace, one of the Angola 3, who spent over 40 years in solitary confinement. The project imagines the house Wallace would have built had he been free, serving as a poignant commentary on the American justice system and the power of art as a tool for social change.
