It is Nina Simone’s birthday. I have been listening to her all day. Breakfast in bed in Paris. 1988. Photographer unknown. Thank you, David Cale for posting this on Facebook today. Here she talks about what compels her to be so compelled to insist on her blackness and that it be celebrated. “BLACK IS THE COLOR OF MY TRUE LOVE’S HAIR” Photo by Teenie Harris Photo by John Minihan. 1978 Photo by Peter Williams
