HOW LONG 'TIL BLACK FUTURE MONTH? | BOOK REVIEW

Hey guys here is my coffee table book review of Soul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power by Mark Godfrey & Zoe Whitley. WANT TO PURCHASE? (Amazon Affiliate Link) https://amzn.to/2WaT9pA I enjoyed this book. I have been using it as a reference to find black artists new to me and learn more about the ones I do know. The art in this book is from the time frame of 1963 - 1983. Many of the artists in this book were very young during this period and wanted to create art that is true, innovative, and still reflect the times they were living in. They addressed many topics like black feminism, AfriCobra, social justice, music, black empowerment, the art world, history, etc. I highly recommend this book. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Music Beach Dayz - Lakey Inspired ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Want To Support This Channel?

SEPARATE CINEMA: THE FIRST 100 YEARS OF BLACK POSTER ART

Hey guys here is my coffee table book review of Black Panther: The Revolutionary Art of Emory Douglas. I've checked out and read this book a couple of times and didn't realize I haven't did a review of it. I really didn't know what to say because the book does a really great job of taking about his personal life, his art, and running the Black Panthers newspaper. I loved all the artwork and the stories behind what inspired them. I wish he would come out with another book with all the artwork he created I know he got enough for one more. WANT TO PURCHASE?

BLACK PANTHER: THE REVOLUTIONARY ART OF EMORY DOUGLAS | COFFEE TABLE BOOK REVIEW

Hey guys here is my coffee table book review of Soul Train: The Music, Dance, and Style of a Generation by Questlove. Disclaimer I was never really into Soul Train and I haven't had luck with Questlove books. I DNF'd two previous books by him. But since Soul Train is a big part of Black Music History I felt like I should at least check it out and enjoyed this book. He takes you through the history of Soul Train and his favorite episodes and performances. I learned a lot because I didn't watch the show that often. He talks about how Don Cornelius took an idea and made it happen, Soul Train working with labels like Motown to get small and big acts on the stage, being a platform to start or revive careers, transitioning through the music changes over the years, changing of themes and theme songs, Soul Train dancers and how they got started and how the Soul Train Line came to be, etc. I wasn't a big fan of the sho but I enjoyed this book.

SOUL TRAIN | COFFEE TABLE BOOK REVIEW

Hey guys here is my coffee table book review of Scent of a Dream: Travels in the World of Coffee by Sebastiao Salgado. I read this book months ago and never reviewed it. Sebastiao Salgado is a favorite of mine so its about time I did a review on this channel. If you love coffee or have a coffee expert in your life I recommend this book. In Scent of a Dream Sebastiao Salgado takes you to principal farming locations in China, Colombia, Guatemala, Ethiopia, India, Brazil, Costa Rica, and beyond showing you the coffee process. I liked how he showed the faces of the workers and them in their down time. All the photos are in black in white and this book is large and heavy. WANT TO PURCHASE?
