There comes a time when you have to take action. Where talking is no longer enough and you have to take to the streets and act. Fight for your rights, your life, and your freedom. Collectively we can make a difference, we can bring about change.
In this work of art by Andrew Nichols you find a group of protestors that are powered by their past and influenced by their ancestors. They have picked up the torch and are moving forward to ensure a better life for themselves and the next generation.
Featured on the back of the activists are icons and history makers that influenced them. Giants such as Basquiat, Jimi Hendrix, Thurgood Marshall, Bill Russell, Muhammad Ali, Nelson Mandela, Frederick Douglass, Martin Luther King, Tupac Shakur, Jackie Robinson, Malcolm X, Colin Kapernick, Booker T. Washington, James Baldwin, Barack Obama, W.E.B. DuBois, and Elderidge Cleaver.
