To Be Conscious

“To be a Negro in this country and to be relatively conscious is to be in a rage almost all the time.” - James Baldwin

A powerful work of art inspired by an iconic quote from author and activist James Baldwin that first appeared in Time Magazine in 1965. It depicts an African American woman with a large Afro with her fist raised as a symbol of solidarity with her people and as a symbol of her commitment to resisting all oppression at all costs. In the background are images of her ancestors in bondage.
