This is the second piece I did for the #ArtIsRevolution #artshow organized by @artbymia... • • • This is the last photo of Elias Beauchamp who along with Hiram Rosado assassinated the brutal Francis Riggs - Police Chief of Ponce Puerto Rico, in 1936 in response to the Rio Piedras massacre... Both Elias and Hiram were executed by the police in the police station without a trial... This photo of Elias Beauchamp is the last photo taken of him saluting the camera just before he was killed... • • • #FreePuertoRico #DefendPR #DefendPuertoRico #PuertoRicoLibre #vagabond • • • This piece is 36”x24” and is available for sale framed...

Blue Text reads: “My anger IS a productive emotion! - J Mase III] There is no freedom in playing polite with our oppressors about what they are doing to us. To any who may be feeling anger right now, know that it is valid, and there’s nothing that anyone can say to make it less. Moving forward, we can ask ourselves this: how do we channel it? What role does our very justified anger as marginalized people play in the future of this? Once we know the answer to that question, we can use our emotions, anger or otherwise, to affect change, as many have done before us. #artisrevolution #angerasfuel #emotionsaspower

[Image Description: YaliniDream in mid air, holding a raised fist in the air. She is dressed in black, brown and gold. Gold Text reads: #myartisrevolution. I seek peace through justice in the lands of earth, psyche, soul and dream. I live in the borderlands where poetry is theater is love is movement is song is prayer is conjure is rebellion. Through dignity, self-determination, and liberation for all, I envision shifting human economies from extraction, exploitation, violence and war to love, nourishment, care, and creativity. -YaliniDream, Brooklyn DreamWolf.] As we enter a new stage of seeking justice through art as rebellion, we are gifted with words of resilience from awQward artist and storyteller, @yalinidream. Liberation will be signified with art that tells the stories of how freedom was achieved. Yalini makes up one half of the hip-hop storytelling duo, Brooklyn DreamWolf!

[Image Description: @kavi_ade standing in front of a microphone, wearing a sleeveless T-Shirt that says, “Dear White Supremacy, I’m Still Here, in gold letters. Text reads: “No more self indulgent poems. No more art for art’s sake. What is freedom now, if only the chains have changed? - Kavi Ade] True words are spoken here. As Nina Simone says, “How can you claim to be an artist, and not reflect the times? That to me, is the definition of an artist!” In times of stress, past, present, and future, we will know very well, the feeling of our art as some of the only representation we may receive. To exist as a reflection of the times ahead, may very well be the thing that keeps out memories here. Thank you Kavi for these brilliant words. They’re right on time.
