Mariah Carey is a biracial icon who mixed pop, R&B, and hip-hop before it was trendy. She’s never fit neatly in a box. Too Black for pop, too pop for R&B. Folks didn’t know where to place her. But she’s a true Legend. She deserves her flowers. 🌸

BREAKING: Cory Booker has now held the Senate floor for over 16 hours straight and counting.
Currently, 27,000 people are tuning in live via a single YouTube stream, and more than 4 million viewers have already engaged with portions of his speech.
This is the kind of momentum Democrats need. People are watching to see how long he can keep going, but in the process, they’re being exposed to truths and facts that many don’t hear from mainstream outlets like Fox News.

By putting my story onto a canvas, I aim to break the silence that has surrounded my identity & invite dialogue about race, belonging & the spaces in between. This painting is a declaration of presence & a reminder that identity is not defined by the limitations others impose.
..navigating a world that demands definition yet offers no space for complexity. The muted tones & the physical act of silencing serve as a visual narrative of feeling unheard & unseen.

From our earliest days, Black history has always been American history – and Black folks have profoundly shaped our American culture through music, art, literature, sports, and beyond. One month a year is not sufficient to celebrate the power of the movements and the people who have fought for the rights we enjoy today. That’s something that we have to do each and every day, as we strive to live up to their example and make sure our children and grandchildren remember their stories.
".. & fuel a deeper connection to justice & community. Beauty is in the detail & it’s ok to not be ok at times, but how we choose to love & support each other is what matters. 🌿"
