What’s Ya Freedom Like?

A black & white photo series capturing creatives of color, and asking one single question.

“My freedom is being able to be myself unapologetically. Being me, being black, being bold, being beautiful, being angry, being proud, being all that sh*t. Period.” -Quanna, Artist

My freedom is infinite. It has no boundaries, it has no person or place it can go to.” -Myles, Writer 

“Creating opportunities for Black women and men where they feel free, celebrated, honored, and cherished.” - Rachel, Founder of Nappy Head Club

“My freedom is recognizing my own power. As soon as one recognizes their own power no one can ever take freedom away from them.” -Zania, Poet

“Being everything that I am, at one time. My ability to be full of love, resistance, and magic all at once.” -Alicia, Actor

“My freedom is art and expression. Whatever I was about to put on that paper was about to change the world.” -J Wesley, Poet & Writer

“Freedom to me is a feeling...It’s about joy, the pain, the love, and overcoming boundaries.” -Demetrius, Dancer

“My freedom is acceptance within myself. Freedom is equality. Freedom is black queerness existing in the world and in my space.” - Zach, Performer

“My freedom is every honest breath I decide to inhale and exhale.” -Percy, Actor

“My freedom is colorful. My freedom is unapologetic. It's creative; it's ancestral. My freedom is Black freedom, a beautiful special thing." - Rikki, Founder of Nappy Head Club
