Hidden Treasures of the Diaspora

Inez Hogan (August 5 1895-February 1973) was an American author and Illustrator of children's books.


Did you Know ??



Black Americana

 "African-American" Memorabilia

Collecting, seeing, and discussing such memorabilia can be a "soft" spot for some in the Diaspora, but for many who understand the prophecies of the children of Israel may view it as small signs of validation.  In the Books of Nicodemus and the Gang (after reading many comments as well as pictures of open pages) I conclude that a lot of his adventures were typical everyday life events as an Israelite male child in america. Not fully aware of his true nationality, but very conscience of God, also knowing he was one of his children. Just take a look at this page featuring a song as well:  


Black americana memorabilia has an in-depth history of identiying the black characters with bibical names. Quite often, the character(s) have a great regard for family, moral values, respect, and high self-esteem. In the many comments I've read people stated they learned a lot of life values from the adventures Nicodemus. The dialect and depiction of black children in this era by Inez Hogan was what some would now consider offensive, but it doesn't take away from their undeniable beauty or visual impact.  Racism has been in the atomsphere throughout countless generations. Some may feel reluctant to owning anything they deem attached to it, while others find that ignoring the plight of our people to be insolent to our foreparents regardless of the pain it arouses.  Know this  rather painful or enlighting black americana memorabilia is not a reflection of the subjects character, but the creator there of. 

John 3:1

“There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:”
