DHS Celebrates Black History Month

In honor of Black History Month, Mosaic students designed a display celebrating Black excellence with a focus in the areas of music, art, and books. The students highlighted contemporary artists across these three mediums so as to introduce DHS students to new (or hopefully familiar) works. For example, Faith Ringgold is a highlighted artist who currently has an exhibit at the Museum of Contemporary Art. While Charmaine Wilkerson is an author whose book, Black Cake, turned series is gaining popularity on Hulu. The display also features some QR codes to songs students can vibe to.... among them, Solange's 'Don't Touch My Hair'.
