I grew up hearing, "you need to work twice as hard - as a yt person - to get half as much." But why didn't I get told that "you need to work ten times as hard as a Black woman?" Or that the violence in your home, school, work and relationships that you endured because you EXPECT abuse, would disable you?
I love that my breakdowns created much needed fractures from bullshit beliefs systems.
I don't need to be twice or ten times as anybody else, I'm a being. Blooming. And this is why I'm sharing my artwork you today.
