“If you don’t design your OWN life plan, chances are you’ll fall into someone else’s PLAN.
And guess what they have planned for you?
NOT MUCH.””
What was LIFE? Either playing a part all the time in order to be AMONGST people in the warm, or standing ALONE with the strange real TRUE feeling— Alone with a sort of edge of REALITY on everything; even on quite ugly things—cheap boarding house, faced towels & blistered window frames.
While many black communities, especially in the south; experienced continued racial hatred, poverty, race riots and many other hardships in the 1920’s, the decade was also to some extent an era of opportunity for black writers, musicians and visual artist. Jazz music was helping save the American economy from a gloomy aftermath of WWI, black students were establishing fraternities and sororities. The Harlem renaissance and art deco influences gave clear inspiration and greatly impacted the 20’s fashion and jazz culture dominated the rebellion promoting local designers who reflected black culture through heavily embellished, patterned and colorful patterns.
