Three VCU Black student leaders are taking charge of Black History Month by celebrating Black identity.

Sydney Wilson, Black Art Student Empowerment president; Eli Brown, Creative Production Collective head curator; and Taya Coates, Black in Fashion president, collaborated and created Black Fidelity — a project focused on empowering Black voices inspired by the themes of Afrorealism and Afrofuturism.

Black Fidelity is a month-long series of six events showcasing the Black experience using different forms of art, according to Black Fidelity’s Instagram post.

Wilson said Black History Month often focuses on the suffering Black people faced, but never focused on what the community accomplished or what the future could hold for the Black community — she wants to change the narrative, she said.

THIS WEEK — The Virginia Book Company will no longer sell textbooks, according to general manager Sarah Vaughan.

The store is convenient to the VCU dining hall, library and freshmen dorms, though independent from the university.

VBC has been in the business of selling secondhand and used copies of books to students since 1986, according to Vaughan.

Vaughan said she operates VBC but the owner of the store is actually her father Ernest Mooney, and she took over for him after his retirement 10 years ago.

INSIDE: The Children’s Hospital of Richmond at VCU has become the first Project ADAM — Automated Defibrillation in Adam’s Memory — partner in the state, according to the CHoR website.

Project ADAM is currently active in 29 states, with affiliations in progress in four states and Washington, D.C., according to their website.

Students in @nosuchthingastrash visit a local scrapyard to see how metal recycling creates the fabric of our everyday lives.

Scrapyard photos by Divine

[id: crumpled metal grill from an AC unit. A dented giant metal flask that says “party like a rock star.” Bales of multicolored wire. Plastic waste sorted from the copper chopper. Between bales and bales of multicolored aluminum cans and boxes a student picks through misc metals.]

Students were asked to identify questions that came up for them in the readings or in class and investigate those questions using their existing studio practice, while utilizing existing (recycled, not new) materials whenever possible.

Can I fall in love with trash?

Work by Divine, crushed aluminum cans collected from Richmond and the scrapyard. The aluminum cans are partially framed and displayed in a way to show care (object empathy!) for “trash.”

A little sneak peek of one of our pages in issue three!! submitted by the wonderful Divine Porter 🌟

Here’s some thoughts by Porter on the meaning behind these two collages: “I've felt so much shame and embarrassment about my feminine parts. Dysphoria is hard. When I took showers as a kid, I avoided the bathroom mirror like the plague. I didn't want to see what puberty made me become. I even started avoiding showers because the act of becoming clean made me feel dirty. I lived in dirty underwear.”
