is a celebration of the mighty Jerry Pinkney, who died this week. The story of Ybo Landing inspired author Julius Lester's “The Old African” (2005), thrillingly realised by Pinkney, a true master & visionary, & a superb technician. A giant has fallen…

Please take some time to go back and marvel over the incredible works of Jerry Pinkney, the Caldecott-winning illustrator, who died yesterday at age 81. He was a beautiful man whose illustrations were equally as beautiful. 🥲

Rest in Peace, Jerry Pinkney. His work really served the creation of Black folk consciousness in my childhood, and that of many others I'm sure.

RIP Jerry Pinkney. Everything he illustrated was suffused with life and movement, and gorgeous to boot. I’ve spent hours just staring at his paintings wondering how he does it. I’m really, really sad he’s gone.
