African Counting Cards
Donation protected
At the beginning of the Covid19 Pandemic I initially and respectively along with indirectly became removed from two jobs.
I picked up a babysitting/nannying gig for a biracial child and noticed that the child liked to count with playing cards. The idea to put African Images (African ROYAL images) on cards birthed from playing with this child.
I hired 5 artists to create images for a sample deck. The royal African images are well drawn but due to no historian on-board, my historical accuracy is limited. None-the-less, most of my money in the year 2020 went to hiring these artists and obtaining digital images for a sample deck that I am yet to hold in my hand due to cost.
I now am in need of a 1)Hard- Sample-Deck or two or maybe even three decks created from the digital images I paid for 2) a hired African historian to give accuracy to the final decks 3) An artist team to create historically accurate portrayals of African royalty
This is to teach young children to count and create positive portrayals of Africans (We were Kings and Queens too-not just slaves)
