In a blog dated September 16, 2019, Judith Anne Still, daughter and
publisher of composer William Grant Still, pointedly complained that two
great American composers of classical music and opera (Florence Price
and William Grant Still) have not been honored with US postal stamps.
Florence Price and William Grant Still are both of African descent. A
review of African Americans honored with US postal stamps does not
identify a single classical music and opera composer of African descent
and only two vocalists of classical music and opera. Please see stamp
selection process https://about.usps.com/who-we-are/csac/process.htm and help correct a damaging image issue.
