Book cover for White Sand Black Beach: Civil Rights, Public Space, and Miami's Virginia Key by Gregory W. Bush. There are two images on the cover. The bottom one is a normal black and white photo of a beach on a foggy day with fog winding between palm trees and over the sand and distant hills. The top photo looks like a negative of a regular photo of a grove of trees at the beach and has a very dark background.

Do all of you live close to any beaches? (Yes, I think the beaches that can be found on some lakes count, too! It doesn’t have to be by an ocean.)
