"REVOLT: Black Joy Still Exists, It Always Will" is a virtual exhibit that I curated to showcase Black Joy, Black Love and Black Excellence. 2020 was a tough year to sit home and watch what was happening to Black people. And as a Black woman, I needed something other than the constant reminders of how cruel this country can be towards me and those who have my complexion.

This exhibit was created to bring joy and peace to those around me and to remind us that despite the forces that try to keep us in a constant state of despair, we are courageous, strong, spiritual, joyous, carefree, loving and so much more. This collection from poets, photographers and artists across the U.S., displays beauty and pride in being Black.
