An image collage by Richard uses well-recognizable symbolic imagery to highlight the strength of Angela and all black women. The fist illustrates this woman's strength and strong beliefs in her speech. There is also a quote at the corner that adds in giving the piece some context. The poet highlights the strength and importance of a black woman and the only thing they have to feel guilty about is being a black woman to the bone for such beauty she holds, it is no mystery she holds it because she is a black woman.
