Beautiful Also

<br /> <br /> <strong>Inspired by the poem, "My People," by renowned African-American, Harlem Renaissance author, Langston Hughes, the series, BEAUTIFUL ALSO, celebrates the eternal beauty of black people. Clad in gemstones that reflect the light of the heavenly bodies to which Hughes compares them, the subjects demonstrate the transcendent elegance and power of a people who, in Hughes time, were oftentimes considered anything but either. Equally in awe of whom we are and whom we have become, I, like Hughes, proudly honor my people and our magnificent journey.</strong><br /> <br />
