“Black people and black culture are so diverse and colorful. And the fact that there are entire races that solely hate us only motivates me to be fully myself.”
— Reyna, Bermudian, 22
“I think for me what it means to be black and proud is: I guess I come from a long line of people who society and other people have tried to keep down. But — somehow you will never meet anybody prouder of their skin color or where they came from than from someone who is black because melanin is beautiful. The range of colors is just wonderful to look at. It’s its own rainbow."
— Kyra, Chinese and African American, 22
