Ever since Michelle Osbourne moved to Quebec City six years ago, she felt there was a lack of activities commemorating Black History Month in the area. When I came to Quebec City, I felt like there was nothing going on," Osbourne said on CBC's Quebec AM. Osbourne wanted to celebrate the city's women of colour through a photo series, where she could tell their stories. With the women all dressed in black, Osbourne felt it was important for each of them to wear head wraps of different colours, as a symbol of "uniqueness and individuality." Though this started as a Black History Month project, Osbourne would like to continue posting photos and telling the stories of other women of colour in Quebec City throughout the year.
