This is definitely a much needed work since Black models and Black fine artists suffer from racism and invisibility in the arts history field. I studied briefly anglophone art history back at university and indeed, not once did we hear about any of the influential Black artists mentioned. I appreciated how the author emphasised on the importance of celebrating a joyous Black history too.
My favourite pieces of art were "Portrait of a young woman” (p.93) and the sculpture "African Venus" (p.108).

Now, although I understand that the point of this book is to be accessible, I expected a more scientific approach (lack of footnotes, millennial writing style, is the author an art historian or at least an historian??). The author didn't dive much into art analysis, perhaps featuring a co-author who IS an art historian could be a good idea for such a work (maybe I'm nitpicking because my bf has a master in history and I got used to be careful with non-scientific nonfiction idk). But overall, this is a good introduction to Black art history.
