Love's Troubadours' characters are African American, Afro-Latina, Afro-Thai, Afro-Hindu, Black British, and Afro-Russian. Some wear locs, naturals, and processed hairstyles. Whatever way they choose to express their outer selves, I think you will find them incredibly fascinating. Some practice yoga, meditation, mantra chanting, Christianity, and Buddhism. They are straight, lesbian, and gay. Photo Credit: NY Association of Black Journalists Mixer: www.nyabj.org/category/announcements

They end up deeply wounding themselves and others.
