Government and religion


1.) " Oil Food Water "
Lino Cut

8x11


We are in the midst of a food war. It's a war that has been waged against the people of the world. It is a war that is in the interest of large corporations, such as Monsanto. Genetically modified food, hormones and antibiotics in our meat, high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oil, soybean oil, and enriched flour. We our being poisoned and it is government sanctioned. Our water is polluted, so we buy bottled water. That's more plastic to poison the earth, more oil to be drilled. This is the systematic poisoning of the masses.


2.) " Christ Love "

Lino Cut
3x5

Religion has done more harm to the world then good. We rape, torture, and kill in the name of God. We use the good book to justify the indignities we inflict onto the world.

Artist Book


META...
Take anything in the world and look at it as something that is.

To clarify the notions by which we ( I ) understand the world ( existence, objecthood, property, space, time, causality, possibility). Or the relations these things bear to one another.

General Order # 3

" The people of Texas are informed that, in accordance with a proclamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free. This involves an absolute equality of personal rights and rights of property between former masters and slaves, and the connection heretofore existing between them becomes that between employer and hired labor. The freedmen are advised to remain quietly at their present homes and work for wages. They are informed that they will not be allowed to collect at military posts and that they will not be supported in idleness either there or elsewhere."

Happy Juneteenth.

" I Am Not From Your Tribe " oil on canvas



A few months ago I started a series of three self portraits. This is the second in the series. It's 2009 and I wonder why my people are still treated as second class citizens in a nation that our descendants built. To be clear, I am angry. This series is a war cry. Assimilation stripped us of our native tongue and our rituals. We lost our culture and took on that of White America's. Their religion, their customs, so forth and so on. I am an American, a Texan and a black woman, but I am not from your tribe.
