Notes

Description
"Black Roses is a much-needed celebration of contemporary Black women who are making history and shaping our culture as we know it today. From activists, athletes, writers, politicians, and more, these forty Black Roses continue to leave their mark on the world by creating new beauty in their respective art forms, heading movements, fighting for equality, changing the status quo, and championing new definitions of what's possible for future generations. Spoken word poet and founder of the music collective Flowers for the Living Harold Green's inspiring poetry combined with Melissa Koby's breathtaking illustrations will urge you to learn more about these incredible women's achievements beyond the pages of this collection. Through the power of written verse, we can honor the important roles they play in the zeitgeist while exploring which of their admirable traits and experiences can be found within all of us." --,From publisher's description.
