Black Men are the Future is the second book in a series of coloring books geared towards providing representation to marginalized groups of people, starting with the black population. This book hopes to provide representation, and affirmations, and to spread love, compassion, and hope to both young black boys and men. This coloring book is over 150 pages with 60-70 pages of positive affirmations/quotes and 70 pages of coloring. This entire coloring book, series, and concept was created by a black woman so black and brown children can see that there is someone in this world who will love them despite if they ever feel alone. This is a republished version of the original book that was completed in 2020.


The Creative Representation Empire (TCRE) is a series of creative tools and coloring books used to establish creative representation and immersive educational resources for Black and Brown kids. We work to create mirrors of representation for underrepresented communities and portals of understanding, education, and empathy for those not a part of those communities. We are dedicated to doing the work it takes to create a more inclusive and welcoming world one page, one book, and one child at a time.
