On behalf of the Delaware Division of Historical and Cultural Affairs (HCA) for Black History Month, we wanted to take time to highlight a recent piece that was added to our collections in 2021. We understand that this piece is very powerful and may evoke emotion, so we wanted to present it with care and integrity.

Social Media Lead, Desiree May and Communications Manager, Dana Behling had the pleasure of sitting down with the artist Jannah Williams, also known as 'J the Artist'. We provided Jannah with a comfortable space to discuss her artwork she donated to HCA entitled 'We Just Want A Kinder World Than This'. Jannah discusses her passion for art and how she got started, what inspired her to create this impactful piece, and much more!

Special thanks to Jannah for taking the time to speak with us.
