Description

A shirtless Black man rests with closed eyes inside a stack of colorful inflatable pool floats on a sandy shoreline, photographed by Malick Bodian for WSJ. He leans forward with arms crossed over a vibrant hot pink swim tube resting above lime green and yellow rings. Direct sunlight casts crisp shadows across his shoulders and torso against the pale sand and turquoise ocean surf.
