[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.
