Selected Photos by Angela Hill

Angela Hill is a masterful storyteller, weaving compelling narratives through her camera lens to capture life’s profound depth and complexity. Hailing from Columbus, Georgia, Hill’s photographic journey is driven by a deep-seated passion for preserving moments that resonate deeply. Her dedication to working with non-profit organizations allows her to document historical events that might otherwise remain unseen, ensuring these crucial stories are told.

Hill shares “Through my photography I’m most passionate about understanding the complex human condition of Black people in Atlanta who are at the center of political struggle. Here are a series of my images that I want to spotlight. These images are about knowing and being aware that Black people have a divine unlimited source of power and joy within us. I’m most passionate about sharing that message and being light and love through my cultural organizing work”. 

The opening image—created for the organization Sister Song, during Black Breastfeeding Week—showcases the beauty and reality of breastfeeding. Hill notes that these images are important for two main reasons: they highlight Black individuals engaging in everyday activities, which is crucial, and they support programming for Black Breastfeeding Week while normalizing and celebrating the natural and nurturing act of breastfeeding within the Black community.
