When I read W.E.B Du Bois, James Baldwin and Richard Wright, I am able to grasp life through their experience.
A place and time that is very different from my own, yet somehow still resonates in my experiences of 2017.
Times have changed, people have changed, life for the average African-American has changed yet somehow that color line that supposedly disappeared still exists.
I wonder if one day we will every truly live in a color blind world. I wonder if anyone, even myself can really see through my color. My beautiful, my controversial, my identifying color?
