It’s that most affirming and positive time of the year: February ushers in a celebration of Black history. In conjunction, Black artists within the geek community have gathered in solidarity to once again appreciate one another’s immense talent in the famous #28DaysofBlackCosplay. Started by Princess Mentality Cosplay (Princessology on Instagram), cosplayers have taken to social media to share and retweet pictures of Black cosplayers displaying their love for cosplay and the creative license it grants them. You can check out Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to witness the beauty. Here are my favorite incredible cosplayers spotted on Instagram this week!
