“Come celebrate with me that every day something has tried to kill me and has failed” - Lucille Clifton

Today is the start of Black History Month, and MelaNation, the gildapapoose collective, and Black Youth Project100 are inviting you to celebrate a little bit differently this year.

#28DaysOfBlackLove is a month-long social media celebration of different Black communities inspired by BYP 100 activist and gildapapoose collective founder Je Nae’ Taylor’s past video series about love and relationships. Each day of February will be dedicated to a particular kind of love, and each morning activists from BYP100, MelaNation, and the gildapapoose collective will post videos or short love letters along with the day’s corresponding hashtag to our social media.

Join us in this celebration! How do you plan on celebrating #28DaysOfBlackLove?

Over his lifetime, acclaimed Nigerian photographer, J.D. Okhai Ojeikere, photographed thousands of hairstyles worn by Nigerian and African women. Today, these photographs have been seen around the world and continue to inspire stylists, hairdressers and photographers alike.

To pay homage to Ojeikere’s work, photographer Medina Dugger created the Chroma photo series, which she describes as “an ongoing series that celebrates women’s hairstyles in Lagos, Nigeria through a fanciful, contemporary lens.”
