you know that feeling of when a musician sings so well it feels like they are singing to you and only you, and nothing else matters, even though you (both) know they aren’t singing to you, but it still feels like they are? that was tonight, thank you Benjamin Clementine for it all // ✨🎶"Wishing Americana happy/ Wishing Americana free/ Ben’s an alien passing by/ Wishing everyone be" 🎶✨- Lines from Jupiter from the album Let It Fly (2017) (at Carnegie Hall)
Howardena Pindell talking yesterday about her incredible video work “Free, White and 21” (pictured) at the We Wanted a Revolution Exhibition Closing Celebration event // Pindell also mentioned that she would often send anonymous letters to people in the (white, male dominated) art world who pissed her off and she would sign them as “Black Hornet” ✊🏽 🐝 (at Brooklyn Museum)

“Untitled” (ca. 1959-60) by Hughie Lee-Smith. “I think perhaps in expressing…a kind of loneliness of spirit, I’m expressing a thing that’s based in the life experience of most Negroes in this country-a sense of rejection, a sense of being out there all by yourself.” - Lee-Smith quoted in the museum wall text at NMAAHC (at Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture)
