Book description
"This is a must-have for Black youth to experience art, photographs, and stories that will entertain the entire family." -Kareem Abdul-Jabbar"Sociologist Brown and artist Palmer reimagine W. E. B. DuBois's early 1900s children's magazine with a splendid assemblage of essays, poems, and art from Black creators that aim to lavish 'resounding Love' on Black youth... Enriched by stunning and expressive acrylics, oils, and collages from Palmer and other artists, this serves as a heartfelt tribute to young people of color and their 'reflection of resplendent beauty, ancient history... and irreplaceable value.' It's a standout." -Publishers Weekly, Starred Review"A beautifully curated collection." -Atlanta Journal-Constitution"In 1920, W.E.B. Du Bois helped found The Brownies' Book, a monthly magazine of games, stories, and pictures, all designed, as the inside cover of each issue declared, 'for all children but especially for ours.' In this new edition, sociologist Karida L. Brown and her husband, visual artist Charly Palmer, deliver the exuberance of the original to today's kids and parents.... With work ranging from the hilariously lighthearted to the breathtakingly empowering, this book consoles, explains, entertains, and inspires us all." -Oprah Magazine"An astounding collection celebrating Black joy and creativity." -BookPage, Starred Review jQuery(function() { jQuery( "#tabs" ).tabs(); });
