Living History - Black Profiles of the Past and Present
Which Continue To Shape Our Future
The Nubiano Project,
Inc., an independent organization committed to the empowerment of the
Black Community, today announced the availability of the first in a
series of highly anticipated works of literature entitled, Black
Profiles: The North American Experience, Vol 1.
From thought leaders and inventors to artists and athletes, Black
Profiles explores the contributions of a distinct, influential culture,
as well as that culture's impact on the world. In all, the book
contains 50 mini-biographies, inspirational quotes and illustrated
portraits, intended to raise readers' awareness and spirit.
Even with the advent
of Africana curriculum, it is disappointing that information regarding
the Black Diaspora is disparate and often presented without enthusiasm
or great care, said Clayton Perry, founder of the Nubiano Project. In
order to reverse that trend, our organization strives to highlight and
preserve under-represented and ignored segments of history through the
production of the Black Profiles series.
Volume 1 showcases the determination, creativity, passion and character
of prominent Black pioneers, and serves as a tribute to all of the men
and women who enabled the creation of such a series. Black Profiles is
intended for readers of all ages and education levels, whether they
seek personal enlightenment or are engaged in more formal curricula.
Our goal is that all generations are afforded the opportunity to
interact with and gain an understanding of their past, continued Perry.
After all, these are the 'Black Profiles' who continue to shape our
future.
