As President Lyndon B. Johnson said in the 1960s to a young Bill Moyers: “If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.”

We made it to Cali.

[Anike Robinson @neekspeak]

God willing, I will be California by this weekend. Three weeks of sun, family and friends might not be long enough. Only five more days until I get to one of my happy places.

She is just about finished. She does need a name and back story. She is wearing my favorite dress. My work incorporates objects I’ve owned for years. Since I work out of my living room I have to recycle and reuse... https://t.co/G34in33PQK

Our thanksgiving in the mountains. Just me and by favorite shadow.

Was down at the beach hanging with my favorite artist Mack Watchmon. He says he’s working on his memoir so he left his studio available to me this weekend. Thank you to my favorite mentor. And I am working on a Gris Gris Gurl named Ophelia for the place and space I love so much.
