A digital image of journalist A. Peter Bailey in his home in Washington D.C. The image captures Bailey up close as he looks forward but slightly above the camera. He wears a multi-color patterned shirt, likely a Kente textile, and a scarf with the Pan-African flag colors (red, black, and green). His house has the walls lined with memorabilia, ephemera, and family memories. In the background, sitting on the windowsill, are three different posters of Malcolm X.
