First sundown in a while

This was taken back in June, when we used to have dinner outside and I realised that for the first time in so long, life wasn’t all about losing something I never had.

“I think about my father being called ‘boy’, my uncle being called ‘boy’, my brother, coming back from Vietnam and being called ‘boy’. So I questioned myself: “What does a black man have to do before he’s given the respect as a man?” So when I was 18 years old, when I was old enough to fight and die for my country, old enough to drink, old enough to vote, I said I was old enough to be called a man. I self-ordained myself Mr. T so the first word out of everybody’s mouth is “Mr.” That’s a sign of respect that my father didn’t get, that my brother didn’t get, that my mother didn’t get.“

-Mr. T on the subject of his name

when you think of an embarrassing memory try and remember this:

think of one person, it could be your best friend or a random classmate/ coworker

now try and remember two embarrassing things they’ve done in their lives

if you cant, chances are no one can remember yours!

if you can remember, do you really care? probably not. how often do you reflect on other peoples lives? probably not often. no one really cares about your embarrassing moment either! they’re too busy thinking about theirs.

REPLACEFACE

Based out of the UK, artist Steve Payne is the brainchild behind the project entitled REPLACEFACE. Payne takes digital copies of the works of English painter George Dawe (get your Art History learn on if you don’t know who that is!) to literally swap the heads of the original subjects with the heads of contemporary celebrities.
