Norman Rockwell’s Family Condemns Homeland Security’s Use of His Work

In 1989, I saw an exhibition of Rockwell’s civil rights paintings. I knew his work very well, but I had never seen most of these paintings. I stand with his family. This is a misuse of his work.

Please support this wonderful bookstore. The staff is kind and knowledgeable, the selections are well curated, and their children’s book section is a delightful, which is not a word I often use. I did an event there in 2024, and they made me feel like a part of their local reading community!

My newest piece is an homage to coffee culture and cafe goers everywhere! It’s an 18” x 24” print that I’m releasing in a limited edition of 250. There are 90 different figures in the drawing, drinking everything from iced coffee to matcha lattes. This labor of love took about 90 hours to create.

I had such a good time at the South Berkeley Public Library Zine Fest that I only managed to take one picture, of this cool sign by artist and festival organizer Avy Jetter! Thank you, Avy, for this wonderful event! See you next week at SF Zine Fest!

What a thrill and an honor to be part of the program of readings and panels at the Schomburg's 100th. From the parade at the opening to the amazing panelists, to our own reading and discussion in the children's reading room at the Countee Cullen Library, it was day I will never forget.

In my other life, I make autobiographical comics that are funny, silly, and occasionally wise. My next comic, on my years as a college rugby player, will appear in this anthology. Please support our Kickstarter: www.kickstarter.com/projects/sta...

This was my immediate thought upon reading about this. There are some critically acclaimed and highly celebrated Black artists in the planned exhibition. Why would the museum not want to mount the show. hyperallergic.com/992061/show-...

The fact that Edward’s was willing to secure private funding to skirt the red tape and they refused is telling.

My parents had these songs on heavy rotation. "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" melts my heart every time. Only in the last ten years did I learn she was a child prodigy who entered Howard U at 15, on a full scholarship.

Thank you for the lasting gift of your music, Ms. Flack.

She is an unsung hero! I love that you collaborated on a play about her. Activist youth are too often overlooked!
