RAISING
​ AWARENESS

These artworks are inspired by histories and current realities of social injustice - and the responding activism and organizing that envisions and enacts a just world.  I created them in honor of the indigenous and human rights activists and visionaries at​ the forefront of these struggles.

"Break The Unbending" - Tribute to Alice Walker's Pro-Palestinian Activism
Tef Poe: "And all too often, these conversations are intellectualized and moved completely away from the people who aren't allowed to come into the rooms and intellectualize the different theories surrounding racism. But they did show up in the middle of the street on West Florissant when a militarized police force was encroaching on their neighbors. So many people in pop culture are speaking out now, but they are not speaking in terms of an all-out need for a political revolution in America for Black people."
"Black Elk Speaking"
"Berta Caceres" - “We have to wake up! We have to wake up, humankind! We’re out of time.” “Mother Earth – militarized, fenced-in, poisoned, a place where basic rights are systematically violated – demands that we take action.”
"Pacha Mama One"
"True & Versal Law" - Honoring Mumia Abu-Jamal
"Ceyecle"
"Third WEyese"
"Pacha Mama Two"
"Stars And Bars" - inspired by the work of Emory Douglas
"Racism: Made In America"
Tribute to Sandra Bland and her mother, Geneva Reed-Veal
Darren Wilson said he saw a demon in Michael Brown, I say he saw a reflection of himself. "Whose Streets" intricately reveals the lives and minds of freedom fighters on the frontlines of the movement for black lives. "If you stick a knife nine inches into my back and pull it out three inches, that is not progress. Even if you pull it all the way out, that is not progress. Progress is healing the wound, and America hasn't even begun to pull out the knife." --El Hajj Malik El Shabazz (Malcolm X)
Honoring Juventina Villa
