This prize woman I hold near and dear handed this to the girls, I notice just about everything she does, says and don’t do and say. I have a strong sense that she painted this covering although she refused to address my ask.
I FEEL SHE DID IT ANYONE and even if she didn’t SHE CAN AND DOES.
When you understand love, care, sisterhood and friendship, for us that is what we do.
This was wrapped up in a book by one of our front line protesters De Nichols who dissected all parts of ARTISTRY you can get in this movement and in life.
Whatever your ART
Whatever your SKILL
Whatever your TALENT
Whatever your GIFT
Whatever your PASSION
Whatever your JUSS
If you are NOT embodying these words of the great NINA SIMONE then you are NOT for authentic liberation of LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS FOR ALL TO LIVE IN A JUST AND EQUITABLE WORLD.

They like art, ART is what they do
They like sports, SPORT is what they do
They like science, SCIENCE is what they do
They like history, history is what they do
The learning is what they want to do and enjoy doing.
Who would’ve imagine that I penned these words below on the 24th of November and 5 days later my friend would gift the girls with a book dissecting the MANY ART FORMS?
Art comes in many forms:
Collage

LIFE AND LIVING.
I am eager to be in spaces with faces I haven’t in a minute, creating art.
