@djvlad @MorganJerkins So sad... your white supremacist KAREN tactic didn't work. Crazy how you created a livelihood off the backs of Blacks but still chose to be a colonizer instead of a colleague. #KendrickLamar #MorganJenkins voice! Lol

[A New Way of Life @ANewWayofLife1]

[New York Times Arts @nytimesarts]

The artist Mickalene Thomas has designed a show at Yale University Art Gallery blending fact and speculation about the lives of Black Americans whose stories have largely been lost. It is based around a precious (and mysterious) portrait miniature. https://t.co/UYO9U45YjU

🎥 Mary Enoch Elizabeth Baxter, Excerpt from Ain’t I a Woman, 2018/23.

[Brooklyn Museum @brooklynmuseum]

Bodily autonomy for all.

In "Ain't I a Woman," Mary Enoch Elizabeth Baxter raps and retells her experience of being shackled for 43 hours while giving birth, raising the question of who is considered a “woman” by society and the law—and who is considered worthy of human rights.
