The Randomness of Me

I came across this very cool site called Red Light (via an FB, Tumblr, and real life friend) that is a database for all things visual arty. I simply had to share some of the gorgeous pics I found that chronicle Black life in the ’30s, 40’s, 50s, and 60s…

I’ve decided to post a few everyday for Black History month because they show us in being: good, bad, sad, and jump-up-and-kiss-the-moon best. They show the fire we came through and the peace we always had with and among ourselves. All of the photos here can be found on the Red List site Enjoy…
