Hendrix+Lenox is a lifestyle brand inspired by the sons of founder, Lola Keyes Wood. She creates opportunities for children to see images of black children, families and characters.
She wrote Adventures of Hendrix & Lenox: Safer at Home because, as mother to Hendrix and Lenox, she had been talking about the implications of coronavirus with her children. She couldn’t have imagined that she would have to talk to them about racism, police brutality and the Black Lives Matter movement in quarantine but she wanted to address the climate. With this in mind, she decided to design a teaching tool for families to have difficult conversations.
