Black. A color that is often only ever associated with negative connotations and stereotypes. A disposition that runs so deep that is has colored societal notions of black people, despite our lack of singularity in existence, our lack of monolithic state of being. Black. A color that is connected to everything and all corners of the world. A breeding ground and birthplace for life and innovation.

after all, out of darkness came the light.

Melanin: Black is an exaltation to blackness, the state of living within a black body, on the most abstract of levels. Love, reflection, emotion, and divinity collide at the epicenter of the collective discussion surrounding what it means to be black, what those experiences look like, and the ways in which those experiences and meanings are constantly being redefined.
