An oil painting, an adaptation of the artistic trope of Judith and Holofernes. On a vibrant patterned floral background, a Black woman (in the role of Judith) with an elaborate wrapped hair style, Navy blue dress, and leather belt ornamented with a metallic chain band, stands with her weight on her right foot, her left leg outstretched forward. One vine of the floral background crosses horizontally over the bottom center of her dress. She twists at the waist, but with her back straight, so that her left arm stretches across the foreground. In her left hand, the severed head of a white woman with wavy brown hair (Holofernes). The Black woman wears a purple and blue ombré eyeshadow, her gaze firm and directly at the viewer.

A very detailed, almost painting-like quilt. This quilt portrays a young Black couple posed amid a lush landscape. In the background a tree bearing peaches signifies abundance. The figures are vibrantly clothed in West African-printed fabrics: Dutch wax prints and kente cloth have been tailored into a dapper power suit and fashionable gown.

Post by Keith Edwards: “People are mad at me. That’s ok. We can disagree— or at least I hope we can. But I don’t think it’s ok to tear me down because I don’t have a college degree. It’s just a piece of a paper. This is part of what I was talking about, by the way.” Followed by video of Columbia student protester speaking about being denied access to water.
Post by Keith Edwards: “as someone who didn't go to college, literally started working full-time at 18, let alone going to an Ivy League school... this feels like watching very privileged children acting up at preschool”
