It’s a treat to have the gentleman behind the lens, Colville (aka CtHruLens), share his thoughts behind his creative concepts. So in honor of Black History Month, I am excited to share with you this guest post. I know you'll enjoy what he has to share. To see more of his work and creative projects, visit his website, which I’ve included in the link below. Lest we never forget...

February is at its end and with it, a month designated for the celebration of Black History. As I pondered much of what is associated with this celebration, a familiar song popped into my head. Lift Ev'ry Voice and Sing by James Weldon Johnson is a beautiful and powerful poem that thrives in ubiquity every February. The last verse of said poem/song has been my favorite for some time, but for the first time, the last five words grabbed my attention.
