Dazhane Leah created stunning photos to capture how people feel about the words “black power�. Leah appealed through social media for people to define black power. After a huge response she has produced some fantastic images showcasing afro hair combined with beautiful flowers. She told 5 Live what she thought black power was, "Empowering and celebrating black people and black lives� through our hair, fashion and culture. She added: “it’s not a term to discriminate against any other race, but simply just to celebrate who we are and what we are as a race and a culture.� This clip is originally from Up All Night Thursday 17 March.
