“One of the most valuable contributions to this planet has been devalued and under attack. Cherish our mothers, sisters, daughters, friends, relatives, lovers, and wives. Rescue the world, protect black women.” – J. William Washington

This project is a proclamation to reciprocating the value of black women. What started off as a series of candid portraits has grown into something much more. It’s purpose is to continue the conversation of what it means to love, honor and foster safe spaces that allow black women to be heard.
