Whose Freedom Day?

This piece depicts the hand of a Black person holding a roman candle that emits blood splatter instead of a firework. The background alludes to celebration with a confetti-like appearance. The red and white stripes of the roman candle paired with the blue background echo the colors of the American flag, highlighting the Independence holiday. "Whose Freedom Day?" challenges the narrative of the 4th of July being a day of celebration, acknowledging that Black people in this nation had and continue to shed blood for this country.
