She Cries For Equality and Justice
Artist: Milagros Suriano-Rivera
Media: acrylic and collage on watercolor paper. Original Dimension: 22x30

This painting is my prayer for humanity. Created as a call to action for Equality and Justice ignited by the murder of Mr. George Floyd by police. Here I commit the names of my sisters and brothers who also lost their lives because of the color of their skin. There, beyond the veil I see her through my own tears...."their blood is our blood" she says to me with blood streaked face. She is adorned with symbols of peace, equality, justice and the red thread of connection. She stands before me surrounded and supported by our ancestors....holding and witnessing me as I awaken to my blackness as a Latina woman of color. She whispers, "Re-Member who lives here...then they will never be forgotten".
