PHYSICAL ART

Art has always played a significant role in the lives of Black people, from ancient African civilizations to modern-day movements like Black Lives Matter. For centuries, art has been used as a powerful tool for storytelling, activism, and self-expression, helping Black people to reclaim their history, culture, and identity in the face of systemic oppression and racism.

Whether through traditional forms of art like music, dance, and visual art, or through newer mediums like social media and film, Black people have consistently used art to explore and celebrate their experiences, express their emotions, and call for social change.

Furthermore, art has provided a platform for Black artists to challenge dominant narratives and stereotypes, break down barriers, and showcase their talents to the world. It has also been a means of preserving and passing down cultural traditions from generation to generation, and creating a sense of community and belonging among Black people across the globe.

In hopes of preserving my art and showcasing my talent and experiences, I look forward to inspiring many others to do the same.
