Black Aristocracy


A long time ago, there was a renaissance, of culture, of spirit, of the soul. we need this again...
A time when we traveled the earth, and wrote of our adventures.
A time when we created new forms of dance, new forms of music.
A time that we still feel to this very day.

The Digital collage above was made from a photo by a man from this era, a man who became one of the most prolific photographers in the world. James VanDerZee was the visual historian for generations of our culture.

Peep game, and remember that every minute of your life is black history...
Peace
