A wish for freedom Monique Lorden

"My mother created photo albums and journaled between our family pictures. Growing up, I enjoyed recollecting her memories. Through neatly sewn upholstered albums, I realized my mother is a gatekeeper of truth. She has the ability to create eternal out of temporary. We all do. In each photo, she captured feeling. In each journal entry she affirmed freedom. we all can." A Wish For Freedom, is an interactive photo journal of poetry and soulful affirmations. This photo journal is an intimate reminder that there is always inner work to do, beautiful Black people form smiles on familiar faces, and words are powerful.
