The Artists

“When I was asked to collaborate on this project in the wake of the Black Lives Matter movement and racial unrest, I felt it not only natural, but necessary as an artist to [reflect the times], to use my voice as protest, to amplify my art and by so doing, amplify so many other voices of Black women and people, so they too could feel seen and less invisible.”
Cynthia Amoah

Dionne Custer Edwards

“We wanted to bring light, to shine hope, and to honor Beautiful Black Lives.”

“The artist has been gifted voice for times such as these. So that, when the world looks away from injustice, it becomes less and less possible not to hear our screams.”
