** Nominated for a NAACP Image Award **

A groundbreaking collection of photographs and essays that shed new light on the history of Black America, from the Picturing Black History project. 

 
“Stunning . . . Provides fresh perspective on historical photographs and snapshots of Black life.” —NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW
 
“An astonishing work." —Henry Louis Gates, Jr.

Picturing Black History uncovers untold stories and rarely seen images of the Black experience, providing new context around culturally significant moments. This beautiful collectible volume makes a thoughtful gift and is full of rousing, vibrant essays paired with rarely seen photographs that expand our understanding of Black history.

The book is a collaborative effort between Getty Images, Origins: Current Events in Historical Perspective, and the History departments at The Ohio State and Miami Universities. It informs, educates, and inspires our current moment by exploring the past, blending the breadth and depth of Getty Images’s archives with the renowned expertise of Origins contributors and The Ohio State’s and Miami’s History departments, including Daniela Edmeier, Damarius Johnson, Nicholas Breyfogle, and Steve Conn.

Created by a growing collective of professional historians, art historians, Black Studies scholars, and photographers and showcasing Getty Images’s unmatched collection of photographs, Picturing Black History embraces the power of visual storytelling to relay little-known stories of oppression and resistance, perseverance and resilience, freedom, dreams, imagination, and joy within the United States and around the world.

In collecting these new photographic essays, this book furthers an ongoing dialogue on the significance of Black history and Black life, sharing new perspectives on the current status of prejudice and discrimination bias with a wider audience. Picturing Black History uses the latest academic learning and scholarship to recontextualize and dispel prejudices, while uncovering, digitizing, and preserving new archival materials to amplify a more inclusive visual landscape.

"Picturing Black History offers a trove of both famous and unseen photos with brief, poignant accompanying essays to show not only the centrality of Black people to American history but also how African Americans used the photographer’s lens to tell their own stories. The editors, authors, and Getty images have created a beautiful book that stands on its own as a work of art, a veritable museum in print.” —Henry Louis Gates, Jr., Alphonse Fletcher University Professor, Harvard University

Best smelling spray!
Scent: Orange Blossom, Scent: Orange Blossom
Love this product! It is so easy to use, it has quite a vibrant word sent, which is great if you're trying to deodorize. The size has been perfect. I've probably had this one for almost 2 months now, and we are about halfway done with it. It has worked great on our cat tower, the bed, the couch, and even the rugs. If you feel like you need it, definitely get it. It is so worth it!

“Allergy-Friendly and Fresh—My New Favorite
Scent: Orange Blossom
First off, I have to say that I really do enjoy the variety of scents Mrs. Meyer’s comes out with—though not all of them are my cup of tea! I especially like their seasonal releases. So when I spotted this one, I figured it was worth a try. And honestly, it might be my new favorite scent. It’s pleasant and lightly uplifting without being overly floral, musky, or woodsy in strength — basically, nothing that triggers my or my husband’s allergies. It lasts long enough that can provide freshness for a couple of days in my mind without being so overly strong. I also appreciate that Mrs. Meyer’s promotes being vegan, cruelty-free, and non-toxic. Like most natural and smaller-batch products, it’s a bit pricier than the big-brand cleaners, but that’s something I can live with—especially when I catch it on sale. I purchased mine at a discounted price, so it was more in line with what I’d spend on the regular Mrs. Meyer’s line in a brick-and-mortar store. One thing I do fault Mrs Meyers on us their overall bottle design. I don't know how or why, but unless I have some magical gnomes running around my house at night, every single one of these odor room refresher bottles seem to slowly become unscrewed at the top and I can't tell you how many times I have tried to spray and have the bottle become disconnected from the sprayer. Who knows. Maybe it's me and I can't use the spray bottle correctly. So for me I started emptying the this is Meyers room refreshers into one of those continuous spray bottles. Which I think sprays much better than the original Mrs. Meyers bottle. I was just glad it didn't leak in the box on the way here. If I remember correctly it actually was taped down. Since my kiddos are nice enough not to spray cat urine everywhere and I’m not battling wet dog odors, I can’t say this works any better or worse for pet smell than other scents like Basil or Lemon Verbena. For me, it’s more about the fragrance than the heavy-duty pet odor control or enzymes. If I were strictly deciding based on price, I’d probably just wait for a sale or stick to my other favorite limited-edition scents—like Orange Clove or Mint.

Great Product! Terrible spray mechanism
Scent: Coconut Leaf
This is the best odor neutralizer/air freshener I’ve ever used. 5 stars. And it smells very nice. However, zero stars for the spray pump. I’m not talking about the on/off button, but the fact that in two bottles out of three the pump did not depress far enough to create a spray. I tried everything. (See other reviews) So buy the product but keep your working bottles. It’s incredible that such a well established company can’t spend a few cents more per bottle for a reliable sprayer.

Smells Like Tommy Girl Perfume
Scent: Orange Blossom
The Orange Blossom scent smells so much like Tommy Girl perfume! Dupe alert hahaha. Really though, they smell almost identical to my nose. It smells great, works great, and really freshens up my space. Long lasting on fabric too.

good product
Scent: Coconut Leaf
This stuff smells amazing! I love it. The bottle is a little flimsy and collapses on itself as it suctions with the spray but the product itself is great. It removes odors from the air and furniture. Good price point also.
