More info on The Black Beauty Project:
The Black Beauty Project is a collaboration between Candice Williams, Jasmine Colbert and Nena Lockhart, three friends who planned to come together for the Tea & Verse Poetry Salon's show to honor black women in poetry and music, conceptualized by Jasmine Colbert. Their show was unfortunately cancelled due to COVID 19, and they remained inspired to make music together. In considering next steps, Candice contemplated the plight of Black people in America and wrote a song that speaks to their collective beauty and worth. Nena and Jasmine were integral to bringing that vision to reality with their vocal talents and writing skill. In light of recent events from Brianna Taylor to George Floyd and the refrain of Black Lives Matter, as Black women they are standing up to declare the beauty and dignity of Black people everywhere.
