"Inspiration of a New Generation" 36"x24" oil on canvas 2020. This is part of the Norman Rockwell in Post Racial America Series where I re-imagine Rockwell images in a contemporary lens with People of Color as the subject. Im happy to include Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @aoc as the "Inspiration of a New Generation". It took me about 8 years to complete this idea. I took this picture of my daughter Alena holding a magazine when she was only 12 years old. Enjoy.

[radical-agriculture]

it’s gardening season! please don’t plant lettuces/greens directly into the ground in an urban area or close to a building without getting a soil test. the risk of lead poisoning is very high. if you can’t afford a soil test and you must plant into the ground, try to grow something where you will only be eating the fruit and not the leaves & stems (i.e. tomatoes, cucumbers, etc) bc there’s less of a chance that heavy metals will migrate to the fruit tissues. better yet, build a raised bed or plant in pots!

A white person learning another language in the United States is a person looking to build a résumé.

A person of color learning English in the United States is a person looking to be treated like a human being.

It is not the same thing.

[pendejx-deactivated20200323]

Keep reblogging this white people are getting mad because they don’t know the difference between learning a language because it’s fun or to put it on applications and learning a language so you won’t get treated like garbage by everyone

[blackness-by-your-side]

Hey. LIVING COSTS MONEY! How about giving more money to the companies that employ me and MAYBE I MIGHT BE OK

[nyangibun]

This is such a funny thing to me because in Thai culture, it’s completely normal to live with your parents when you’re an adult. In fact, most people live in their family home until they’re married ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[thenutofroyalty]

Saaaame in Pakistan dude and being abroad for grad school is really fucking me up I am not built to be even slightly independent 😂

[beatrice-otter]

In Western culture (including America!) it was completely normal for people to live with their parents in adulthood–sometimes until they married, sometimes longer.  In America, that changed (for men) in the 1940s and 50s, when it was really really easy for an 18 year old to get a good job that paid more than enough to live a comfortable life on, or to afford college which would then practically guarantee you an even better-paying job.  Women joined the trend of moving out at 18 in the 1960s and 70s.

And now those jobs don’t exist, or are few and far between, and guess what!  People are living with their parents again.  But that 70-year span was just long enough that it fell out of common memory, and now people are seen as “failures” because the economics have changed.

[bogleech]

A very great deal of Western culture, ESPECIALLY America, is actually still based on a memory of the 40′s and 50′s as the baseline of normalcy despite them being a total fluke at the time. World War II and McCarthyism created a massive shift towards rabid patriotism, Christian fundamentalism and the ideal of the “nuclear family” that resembled nothing before it and we’re still recovering from as the majority of our most powerful politicians are old enough that this period of sudden fanaticism is their “nostalgic good old days” and the way they think things are “supposed to be.”

[heaven-nor-hell]

I love when these posts randomly become tiny history lessons, it soothes me

[asymbina]

but they weren’t a fluke. the economics of the postwar and baby boomer generations? they were the result of deliberate and specific policies that then were then dismantled so that baby boomers could effectively double-dip.

[i-hate-chick-fil-a]

They broke him. They broke that baby’s spirit. 😢

What’s sad about this is the government isn’t taking into account what these families go through!It might’ve only been 2 months but he is physically disengaged with his dad,does not know what is happening,why it’s happening, and he’ll be stuck with those feelings/memories forever!

[shinydragonite92]

Shits so fucked man. That poor baby. I’m literally sick.

[liberalsarecool]

You KNOW it was the plan to lose all the babies and toddlers. How?

No one resigned. No one was fired. No one left in protest. The evil is Trump policy.
