Power Fist Enhanced Matte Print
Power Fist Enhanced Matte Print
Inspired by the life and living legacy of Assata Shakur, and the life and times of Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-George. This Power Fist commands respect. I chose the grayscale color palette because Chevalier was one of the best known fencers of his time.
The fist itself is an ode to Assata Shakur, a hero to the culture, and one of the most powerful living legends of the Black Power Movement for human rights. I included wave symbols in this piece because Assata found safety from US Government persecution on the island of Cuba. Check out Assata's Letter to The Pope on Youtube. You can also read about how the U.S. Government framed Assata Shakur in her book Assata: An Autobiography.
Shakur is the first woman to be put on the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorist List. The Letter to President Obama Concerning Assata Shakur is an informative read outlining the racist political nature of putting Assata on this list. Find it here.
This piece is for ALL people who lend their lives to the pursuit of justice.
