Opis

We are color struck
The way an artist strikes
His canvas with his brush of many huesLook closely at these mirrors
these palettes of skin
Each color is rich
in its own rightBlack is dazzling and distinctive, like toasted wheat berry bread; snowberries in the fall; rich, red cranberries; and the bronzed last leaves of summer. In this lyrical and luminous collection, Coretta Scott King honorees Joyce Carol Thomas and Floyd Cooper celebrate these many shades of black beautifully.
