One World Black Futures

It arrived damaged. It's a coffee table type book, so it's pretty much garbage now. Not worth the hassle of returning. It's heavy, so if it's not packed properly (with some packing paper) it will be ruined like mine was.

Unique and unlike any other book I own, the book provides insights to the truths, experiences, triumphs and challenges of what it is like to be black in the universe through images and words. You'll read this in a different way, leaping in and out of it frequently, no start, no end, a continuous, beautiful collective - a modern history book. Kudos to Kimberly Drew and Jenna Wortham on the vision. This is beautifully bound and will look great on your coffee table, but more than a coffee table book. More than a conversation starter - it IS a conversation and an important one to have. What a collision of beauty and pain looks like.

Bought Black Futures for a birthday gift and couldn’t help but flip through myself. This book is so much more than a coffee table book, but a gallery of experiences and musings. Gorgeous hardcover and unique varying page layouts create for an elevated, exploratory, and fun reading experience.

This is a beautiful book! Be prepared to be fascinated. A quick note to the manufacturer, I think the cover, specifically what connects the gutter and back cover, could be stronger.

I see folks saying it’s poorly assembled, but my book looks great! Wonderful read, excellent coffee table book.
