“Being a contributor to the Black History 365 album has been a dream come true. Ever since grade school I’ve always yearned and desired to learn more about my people and where I come from. Now, as an adult to be a vessel used to educate and uplift via song, is undeniably satisfying,” said J. Morris. “Black is beautiful is more than just a statement, it’s more than just a song, it’s a mantra that gives me strength in a world that constantly tells us the opposite. Too dark, too light, hairs too nappy, lips too big, nose too wide, you can’t possibly be educated, have discipline, deal with conflict in a non-violent fashion or maintain wealth by honest means. Black is beautiful punches those disrespectful stereotypes right in the mouth. We are to be celebrated! We will celebrate! Our time is here to reconcile with history in sobriety with clear intent.”
