This Is Why I CAN’T STAND “Antiracism“

“If discrimination is creating equity, then it is antiracist. If discrimination is creating inequity, then it is racist. … The only remedy to racist discrimination is antiracist discrimination. The only remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination. The only remedy to present discrimination is future discrimination.” - Ibram X. Kendi (How To Be An Antiracist) My Website: — ABOUT ME: I’m an interdisciplinary artist - a musician and painter - based in North Hollywood, California. My current visual arts thesis is informed by the growing girls/queer skateboarding scene in Los Angeles. I opt for acrylic paint as my choice of medium, along with watercolor and ink for illustrative pieces. My African upbringing and my faith informs my worldview and ultimately the art I create. The unifying factors between the two disciplines of visual art and music are vibrancy and realism. Realism for me is speaking from disadvantage, and color is a reflection of the pursuit of hope. — SUPPORT YOUR GIRL: ART PRINT STORE - PAYPAL - kimikatiti@ VENMO - @kimberly-Katiti CASHAPP - $KimberlyKatiti — Instagram (Main): Instagram (Art): Facebook: Website: — RESOURCES: Authoritative Doctrine The Holy Bible A few books that inform my worldview Mere Christianity by C.S.
